About us
The Swiss Re Group
Swiss Re is one of the world’s leading providers of reinsurance, insurance and other forms of insurance-based risk transfer. Through our work with clients, we fulfil our vision of helping to make the world more resilient. We have a distinct mission: together, we apply deep knowledge, intelligent data analysis and capital strength to anticipate and manage risk.
That’s how Swiss Re powers progress for our clients, helping the world rebuild, renew and move forward. Today, 75% of risks – from natural catastrophes and climate change to ageing populations and cybercrime – remain uninsured. We aim to change that.
Headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland, where it was founded in 1863, the Swiss Re Group operates through a network of around 80 offices globally. Our approximately 14,400 employees provide a wide range of technical expertise, enabling us to develop unique solutions and drive growth. Swiss Re is organised into Business Units, each with a distinct strategy and set of objectives contributing to the Group’s overall mission. Through our strong financial position, we provide the security clients need, especially during times of uncertainty and transition.
Why Swiss Re
Throughout our 160-year history we have helped our clients withstand natural and man-made disasters, and economic crises. We've achieved this by living our core values of client centricity, agility, team spirit, passion to perform, and integrity.
