DR Swiss – the straightforward alternative

"Mach keis Büro uf!"

That’s what we say in Switzerland when we want to take a straightforward and pragmatic approach to things. Excessive bureaucracy and endless red tape? That’s not how we do things in Zurich!

Our company headquarters in Zurich is home to our agile team of 30 highly specialised and experienced employees. We have extensive underwriting expertise and an excellent understanding of the needs of our clients as well as the particularities of the markets they operate in. This allows us to make decisions quickly and in a pragmatic and straightforward manner.

We are a valuable partner when it comes to selected European and international markets and have been offering reliable non-life reinsurance to a partnership-orientated range of clients for close to a quarter of a century.

Are you interested in a long-term partnership designed to secure mutual success?

If so, feel free to get in touch with one of our DR Swiss colleagues!

The inside line

In our Summer 2024 issue, we look at the climate insurance protection gap. We examine the problems as well as possible solutions. We also explore the future of mobility. We look at where the limits of established business models lie and what opportunities mobility data offers. And finally, we ask what is behind the hype surrounding artificial intelligence in the insurance industry against the backdrop of the AI Act, the world's first AI law.
