Bianca E.M. Tetteroo

Bianca E.M. Tetteroo has steered Achmea’s Dutch financial and insurance arm to new heights since becoming CEO in April 2021. A chartered accountant by training, she spent 13 years at Fortis Group—across banking, insurance, and investments—before joining Achmea BV, where for over 12 years she held successive senior executive and finance roles. Under Tetteroo’s leadership, Achmea doubled its first-half 2021 earnings before tax to €363 million, benefiting from waning COVID-19 impacts and stronger investment returns, and this strong revenue and profit growth have continued since. In 2024, the company's operational result increased to €845 million. Facing rising climate-related claims, Tetteroo has also committed Achmea to major investments in sustainable cities and climate action. Her strategic vision and unwavering focus on sustainability earned her a debut spot on Fortune’s Most Powerful Women list, cementing her reputation as a transformative leader in European financial services.
