Your Dedicated Team

Eric Thoby

Founder & CEO

As a French expatriate who lived in the United States for over 20 years, I experienced firsthand the challenges of navigating foreign healthcare systems. After 15 years as a wealth manager in North America, I founded AgoraExpat in 2013 as an independent company—free from insurer pressures, allowing us to always recommend solutions that truly serve our clients' best interests.

My philosophy is simple: every expatriation project is unique. Our role is to listen, understand, and recommend the solution that exactly matches your needs—without compromise on coverage quality. Whether you're a student, working professional, or retiree, we're here to support you throughout your international journey.

Our Core Values

Quality Partnerships

We select insurance partners based on strict criteria: 24/7 multilingual support, mobile applications, prepaid card payment systems, and proven track records. We work with established insurers including April, Humanis, AXA, Allianz, and Generali.

Customized Solutions

Every family is unique. We tailor insurance recommendations based on your family composition, health status, destination country, and budget. We recognize that different family members may have different coverage needs.

Personalized Commitment

You get a dedicated contact representative who remains your primary point of contact throughout your insurance contract lifecycle. We're more than brokers—we're your long-term health insurance partner abroad.

Common Questions About AgoraExpat

AgoraExpat is an independent insurance broker, not an insurer. This means we work for you, not for insurance companies. We compare plans from multiple established insurers (April, Humanis, AXA, Allianz, Generali) to find the best solution for your specific situation.

We were founded by an expatriate who lived abroad for 20+ years. We understand expat challenges firsthand. You get a dedicated personal advisor who remains your contact throughout your contract. We have offices in Paris and New York for responsive, timezone-friendly service. We're independent, so we always recommend what's best for you.

Our advisory services are free for clients. We're compensated by insurance companies when you purchase a policy, but this doesn't affect your premium—you pay the same price whether you buy directly or through us. The difference is you get expert guidance at no additional cost.

Absolutely. Your dedicated advisor remains your primary contact throughout your insurance lifecycle. We assist with claims, answer questions about coverage, help with contract changes, and provide ongoing support whenever you need it.
