Van Campen & Dijkstra Acquires SAA Friesland to Expand Sneek Presence

Van Campen & Dijkstra has acquired SAA Friesland, an independent financial advisory firm based in Sneek, effective June 1, 2026. This strategic move consolidates Van Campen & Dijkstra’s position in the Friesland region by integrating SAA Friesland’s operations, employees, and client base into its existing framework.

SAA Friesland was previously part of SAA Verzekeringen, one of the Netherlands’ largest independent insurance advisory groups. The acquisition aligns with both companies’ affiliation to the Söderberg & Partners network, facilitating a unified regional structure to better serve local clients.

The deal involves a full acquisition of SAA Friesland, including its office at Lange Veemarktstraat 2E in Sneek. Van Campen & Dijkstra will maintain this location alongside its existing office at Singel 48, also in Sneek, thereby doubling its physical presence in the city. The financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Van Campen & Dijkstra, a financial services firm specializing in insurance and financial advice, leverages this acquisition to broaden its service portfolio. Clients of SAA Friesland will gain access to a wider range of financial products, including independent mortgage advice and banking services through ASN Bank, offered at the Singel 48 office.

Job Steenland, director of Van Campen & Dijkstra, emphasized the importance of retaining local expertise: “The SAA team in Sneek brings significant experience and client knowledge. Preserving these trusted relationships is essential for continuing personalized service.” All current SAA Friesland employees will transfer to Van Campen & Dijkstra, ensuring continuity for clients.

The acquisition supports Van Campen & Dijkstra’s growth strategy in northern Netherlands, accelerated by its partnership with Söderberg & Partners. This collaboration provides enhanced capabilities in risk management, employee benefits, and financial analytics, strengthening the company’s competitive position.

Industry consolidation in the Dutch financial advisory sector is intensifying, with firms seeking to expand regional market share and diversify service offerings. By uniting two Söderberg & Partners-affiliated entities, Van Campen & Dijkstra aims to streamline operations, improve digital client management, and offer comprehensive financial solutions under one roof.

Financial details such as valuation multiples or funding sources were not disclosed. The integration plan focuses on maintaining client trust and service continuity while aligning operational processes and IT systems.

Looking ahead, Van Campen & Dijkstra plans to leverage the combined expertise and infrastructure to deepen client relationships and enhance cross-selling opportunities. The company remains committed to delivering personalized, local service in Sneek and the broader Friesland region.
