Agricultural reinsurance
Advances in research and technology have led to a high degree of industrialisation, specialisation and intensification in modern agriculture.
The demand for agricultural insurance has kept pace with the increasingly capital-intensive methods now used. Currently available agricultural risk covers range from traditional hail insurance to commercially orientated business interruption policies.
As a leading reinsurer, Swiss Re has many years of experience in covering agricultural risks worldwide and providing advice and support for all agricultural reinsurance, whether treaty-based or facultative. We are committed to offering comprehensive, solution-orientated products tailored to the needs of the various agribusiness sectors, and of diverse farming situations around the globe.
