Swiss Re announced on November 5 that Lori Goltermann will become Chief Commercial Officer for Corporate Solutions on January 11, 2027. The company said she will lead its global strategy for corporate clients, governments and distribution partners. The appointment adds a leadership development to the reinsurer's latest results picture, according to Swiss Re's press release.
Results hold the 2026 target
Swiss Re reported net income of USD 4.2 billion for the first nine months of 2026, up 3 percent from the prior-year period. Return on equity stood at 22.5 percent, while third-quarter net income reached USD 1.3 billion. Management maintained its full-year 2026 Group net income target of USD 4.5 billion.
Business mix shows pressure
Property and Casualty Reinsurance delivered strong underwriting performance, but its net income declined 6 percent as competitive market conditions weighed on the business. Life and Health Reinsurance posted the strongest earnings growth, supported by its large in-force portfolio and favourable US mortality experience. Corporate Solutions continued to deliver consistent underwriting performance.
Group insurance revenue declined, while the insurance service result increased. Swiss Re also reported an estimated Group Swiss Solvency Test ratio above its target range as of October 1 and said its share buyback programme was nearly complete. The next stated company milestone is the presentation of its 2027 financial targets on December 4, 2026.
