Rolf Dörig

At the ‘Day of In­sur­ers 2021’ to­day in Lugano, Rolf Dörig, pres­i­dent of the Swiss In­sur­ance As­so­ci­a­tion SIA, em­pha­sised the im­por­tant role of the sec­tor dur­ing the coro­n­avirus pan­dem­ic.

The Man­ag­ing Board is the strate­gic body of the SIA. It cur­rent­ly con­sists of 14 mem­bers, each of whom is elect­ed for three years and may be re-elect­ed there­after.

SIA chair­man Rolf Dörig takes a look at the cur­rent chal­lenges fac­ing the Swiss in­sur­ance in­dus­try.

The coro­n­avirus pan­dem­ic has af­fect­ed the in­di­vid­ual in­sur­ance lines to dif­fer­ent de­grees over the past year.

Our lives in 2020 are dom­i­nat­ed by the coro­na cri­sis. Nonethe­less, sus­tain­abil­i­ty and re­form of the pen­sion sys­tem re­main cen­tral chal­lenges that we must con­tin­ue to ad­dress.

The Swiss in­sur­ance in­dus­try has had a suc­cess­ful year – pre­mi­um vol­umes in both non-life and life in­sur­ance rose again in 2019.

Once more, Swiss pri­vate in­sur­ers show ef­fi­cient per­for­mance and sta­bil­i­ty in 2018.
