About Us
Founded in 1996, Döhle Assekuranzkontor is an independent marine insurance broker with a clear focus on the maritime industry. Our team of more than 30 experienced insurance and shipping specialists delivers comprehensive marine insurance solutions, combining excellent claims handling and administration with tailored consulting services.
In 2004, our department responsible for non-marine and private lines was restructured, laying the foundation for steady and continuous growth ever since.
Long-standing, trust-based relationships with our clients and insurer partners define who we are. Our mission is to be a truly capable and professional partner—guided by strong values and distinguished by transparency, innovative risk management, and deep expertise in marine insurance.

Placing Department
We maintain strong, long-standing relationships with insurance companies worldwide, vast majority of which we approach directly. Where appropriate, or where local regulations require the involvement of a local broker, we work closely with a network of highly competent international partners.
Together with our clients, we carefully select risk carriers based on individual preferences, claims-handling expertise, and any additional requirements.
