Pavel Krbec becomes the new CEO of the RIXO.cz Insurance Service

Related to the recent takeover of the RIXO.cz online insurance service by the EMMA Capital Group, the change of CEO of this service will take place on 19 May 2020. The current CEO, Aleš Žárský, will be replaced by Pavel Krbec. 

 

“Aleš Žárský had a huge impact on how the RIXO.cz Service has changed over time from a start-up company to one of the main insurance services on the Czech insurance market. Thanks to his contribution, we can offer a service that is completely unique in its parameters,” said Tomáš Kočka, one of the partners of the EMMA Capital Group.

The new CEO Pavel Krbec joined the EMMA Capital Group along with the acquisition of RIXO.cz in March this year. He has worked as an executive director of RIXO.cz until recently.  Previously, he worked for four years at Home Credit International as a Director for Online Strategy. In 2014-16 he has worked for the Swedish company MTG (co-owner of Prima TV), and since 2008 he worked for TV NOVA. He held the post in senior management in the field of online broadcasting in both companies.

“I am looking forward to working in the new position. I believe that we will continue to develop the RIXO.cz Insurance Service successfully and make sure that our customers will be always properly insured. Our goal is to offer our customers a unique service, where they will have all the insurance policies stored in one place and will never have to worry about them again,” said Pavel Krbec after taking his new position.

RIXO.cz is a service that checks people's insurance contracts free of charge and helps them to improve them. What it means is that clients upload their insurance contracts to an online overview, RIXO checks them for free and evaluates them with the RIXO index. After that they monitor the dates and recommend better insurance with better policies if applicable.

The RIXO.cz service started operating in the middle of 2018 and since then has served more than 16,000 users. In March 2020, the RIXO.cz Service has been purchased by the EMMA Capital Group.
