Our Business

Swiss Re is organised into three business units (P&C Re, L&H Re and Corporate Solutions) – each with a distinct strategy and set of objectives. Through our combined knowledge, expertise and strong financial position, we act as one Swiss Re to provide the security and foresight clients need, especially during times of uncertainty and transition.

Property & Casualty Reinsurance

Supported by more than 2,500 talented colleagues in five continents, P&C Re helps clients navigate risk and uncertainty, create opportunities for growth and drive progress.

Our global teams apply unparalleled expertise, innovation and local knowledge into helping clients of all types build a resilient future for themselves and society. As a full-service reinsurer we are well positioned to support clients with our risk-taking abilities, financial strength, well-diversified portfolio and solutions that extend far beyond just offering pure risk transfer capacity. This makes us an impactful long-term partner for providing you with the right treaty and facultative reinsurance solutions across a broad range of property, casualty and specialty risks.

Life & Health Reinsurance

In an ever-changing world, we help clients move forward in life with clarity, conviction and confidence, no matter how complex the market, so together we can progress with purpose to make the world more resilient.
