In 1726, Det kgl. octr. Søe-Asseurance Compagni was granted a monopoly on marine insurance in Denmark. In the middle of the century, its monopoly was challenged by Niels Ryberg and other major merchants.[1]

Erichsen, Niels Brock, Frédéric de Coninck, Joseph Hambro, Andreas Nicolai Hansen and C. F. Tietgen. Lauritz Nicolai Hvidt was part of the management. His son, Eduard Julius Hvist, joined the management in 1831 (alongside J. F. Wessely) and members of the Hvidt family would play central roles in the company for more than a hundred years.
