Business portfolio with excellent perspectives
Following the operational progress and the strategic adjustments made in 2007, Swiss Life is very well positioned to accelerate growth and further enhance its profitability.
In its home market, Switzerland, Swiss Life remains the market leader in the area of private and occupational pensions. Approximately one million people are insured with Swiss Life, either directly or through their employer. By focusing on reliability and high quality services, the company clearly distinguishes itself from its competitors. Thanks to product innovations in individual and group insurance to meet customer demands for more clarity and transparency, Swiss Life can not only optimise its potential vis-à-vis existing customers, but is also better equipped to win new ones. In France Swiss Life has steadily improved its standing in recent years. The company is the preferred alternative to large national providers, especially for high net worth individuals. Another advantage is Swiss Life’s well diversified distribution network. Partnerships with private banks and independent asset managers contribute greatly to profitable growth. In Germany Swiss Life is one of the preferred partners among insurance brokers due to its professional competence and high service quality standards. Through its partnership with AWD, Swiss Life can exploit its potential even better in the long term.
In cross-border private placement life insurance Swiss Life is already the number two in the world, although it has only been operating in this segment for the last three years. From its locations in Liechtenstein, Luxembourg and Singapore, the company offers tailored concepts for high net worth individuals, combining individual asset management with attractive pension planning solutions. Swiss Life cooperates with leading private banking institutions and independent asset managers to sell these products.
The Swiss Life Network specialises in employee benefit solutions for international corporations. The network is made up of 50 partners and serves approximately 423 multinational companies in over 70 countries and regions.
