How Swiss Re is structured
Swiss Re describes itself as a leading global reinsurer with a corporate structure built around three main segments: Property & Casualty Reinsurance, Life & Health Reinsurance and Corporate Solutions, its primary insurance arm for large corporate clients. According to the company’s own profile, these business units are supported by centralized Group functions such as Group Finance, Risk Management and Group Technology.
The group parent is headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland, with major offices in London, New York, Singapore and other global reinsurance hubs according to the company’s corporate information material. Swiss Re is regulated by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA and, for its listed securities, by the SIX Swiss Exchange listing rules.
Board, management and governance
Swiss Re’s board of directors comprises a non-executive chair and a mix of independent non-executive members with backgrounds in insurance, banking, regulation and academia according to the latest corporate governance report. The board oversees strategy, risk appetite and capital allocation, while daily management rests with the Group Executive Committee.
The Group CEO leads a team of segment and function heads, including the CEOs of Property & Casualty Reinsurance, Life & Health Reinsurance and Corporate Solutions, as well as the Group Chief Financial Officer and Group Chief Risk Officer. Governance documents describe a three-lines-of-defense risk model, with business units taking and managing risk, independent risk management oversight and internal audit providing assurance.
What the company sells
Swiss Re’s core business is providing reinsurance and insurance solutions to other insurers and large corporate clients, rather than retail consumers directly. This includes reinsurance treaties and facultative covers in property, casualty, specialty lines and life and health, as well as tailor-made risk transfer solutions and capital market instruments like insurance-linked securities.
