Engineering

Swiss Re is firmly established as a leader in engineering reinsurance. Over the last fifty years, we have been involved in most major engineering projects throughout the world.

There are special challenges connected with the insurance of large infrastructure projects, such as the huge sums insured coupled with long construction periods and rapid technological developments which create changing risk scenarios.

Swiss Re has more than 200 engineers worldwide who provide a wide range of expertise in civil, mechanical, chemical, nuclear and environmental engineering.

Below are just some of the many engineering covers we are able to provide cover for:

  • machinery breakdown and business interruption
  • Construction All Risks (CAR) and Erection All Risks (EAR) including Third Party Liability (TPL) (see also PUMA)
  • contractors plant & equipment
  • delay in start-up
  • information systems business interruption (ISBI)
  • completed construction
