Board of Directors

The Board of Directors consists of 12 members. 

An inclusive Board composition is indispensable for the successful and efficient fulfilment of its responsibilities.

The Bylaws stipulate that at least three-quarters of Board members must be independent. Swiss Re defines independence in line with legal requirements and best practice corporate governance standards. The Board conducts an annual assessment of its members’ independence on that basis.

The Board of Directors has allocated tasks to the Chair of the Board of Directors, the Vice Chair of the Board of Directors and the Lead Independent Director (LID).
