Six years at the top

A testament to trust, partnership, and progress

There are moments in life that stay with you, not just for what you accomplished, but for how they made you feel. For me, one of those moments was last year, crossing the finish line of my sixth and final major global marathon. It was the culmination of years of training, perseverance, and belief. That feeling of pushing through challenges, staying the course, and achieving something truly meaningful came rushing back when I learned that Swiss Re had been named the #1 US Life & Health reinsurer for the sixth consecutive year in NMG Consulting’s Individual Mortality Study.

Just like completing those marathons, this recognition isn’t about a single sprint, it’s about consistency, resilience, and the strength of the team around you. Being ranked #1 six years in a row is a rare achievement in our industry, and it speaks volumes about the trust our clients place in us, the depth of our partnerships, and the unwavering dedication of our people to deliver excellence every day.

Just as importantly, we know that staying at the top requires continuous training. Much like preparing for a marathon, it’s not enough to celebrate the finish line, you have to keep showing up, putting in the work, and pushing to improve. That’s why we’re constantly refining our capabilities to ensure we remain the first port of call for our clients whether they’re seeking actuarial expertise, underwriting guidance, innovation in product development, or support in navigating new opportunities. The race doesn’t end here, and we’re committed to staying in peak condition for whatever lies ahead.

The 2025 survey results reaffirm what we aspire for every day: to be the most respected reinsurer in the industry. Our clients rated us favorably across critical dimensions, service satisfaction, client management, ease of doing business, and thought leadership. These aren’t just metrics; they’re proof points of the value we bring to our partners.

We were also recognized for our innovation capabilities, including our investments in predictive modeling, proprietary data, and technology platforms. These tools help clients navigate complexity with confidence and clarity.

At Swiss Re, we believe that true partnership means showing up consistently, transparently, and with purpose. Whether it’s responding to an urgent inquiry, collaborating on a complex transaction, or simply making processes easier, we aim to be the kind of partner that makes a difference.

Our clients tell us that what sets us apart is not just what we do, but how we do it. The responsiveness, professionalism, and ownership our teams demonstrate every day are what make working with Swiss Re both impactful and seamless.

As we look to the future, our focus remains unwavering. Our focus is to continue delivering for our clients, achieve mutual success, and to earn our place as the most respected reinsurer in the US L&H market.

Trust is built over time, through consistent performance, honest collaboration, and a shared commitment to progress. That’s why we’ll keep investing in the capabilities, insights, and partnerships that help our clients thrive.

Thank you for being part of the Swiss Re journey. We’re proud to run alongside you, and we’re energized by the road ahead and all we’ll accomplish together.
