The Swiss pri­vate in­sur­ers of­fer in­ter­est­ing ca­reers to qual­i­fied ap­pli­cants and pro­mote mod­ern ways of work­ing.

In­sur­ers are ma­jor in­sti­tu­tion­al in­vestors with a long-term in­vest­ment hori­zon and a pref­er­ence for safe­ty.

Swiss pri­vate in­sur­ers are ma­jor tax­pay­ers and, as such, make a sig­nif­i­cant con­tri­bu­tion to the coun­try's pulic sec­tor.

Switzer­land counts 205 non-life, life and re-in­sur­ers with some 50,000 em­ploy­ees.

In­sur­ance com­pa­nies are ma­jor em­ploy­ers, sig­nif­i­cant tax­pay­ers and among the largest in­vestors in Switzer­land and abroad.

The need for safe­ty is a fun­da­men­tal hu­man need. The Swiss are a very safe­ty-mind­ed na­tion, spend­ing more mon­ey on in­sur­ance than any oth­er.
