Swiss Re Wins Award for Best Corporate Governance, Switzerland, 2013

There are few industries where stakeholders have more to lose than in reinsurance and accordingly the strength of corporate governance is critical.

The panel were impressed in particular by the continual assessment and development of Swiss RE’s corporate governance standards. Under Walter B Kielholz’s leadership, the Chairman’s and Governance committee has helped ensure that Swiss RE continues as a stable and innovative player in the critically important reinsurance market – and this was borne out in the Company’s 2012 results.
