Information Policy

Swiss Re maintains open lines of communication with stakeholders on matters related to its financial and business performances, strategy and business activities through analyst and media conferences and calls, road-shows, news releases and corporate reports. The latter encompass the company’s Annual Report, the Half-Year Report and the Corporate Responsibility Report, which are made available both in print and digitally. Additionally, Swiss Re publishes the Financial Condition Report and key quarterly financial information online.

On the Group’s website www.swissre.com, visitors can find a host of news and research, publications, video and podcasts as well as discussion and analysis related to Swiss Re and the broader re/insurance industry. The financial calendar displayed on the next page is also available online, and includes, amongst other, access details to analyst conference calls as well as on-demand video recordings of annual and half-year results’ events.

The Swiss Official Gazette of Commerce (Schweizerisches Handelsamtsblatt) is Swiss Re’s official media for prescribed announcements and official information. The Chairman annually conducts a corporate governance roadshow to visit and have an ongoing dialogue with Swiss Re’s largest shareholders. Throughout the year, our Investor Relations team, often joined by executive management, holds regular meetings with institutional investors and analysts, including roadshows, conferences and calls. At the Investors Day in Zurich on 4 April 2018, Swiss Re gave an update on the Group’s strategy, presented its underwriting priorities, financial strength and capital generation and provided business updates for each of the three Business Units Reinsurance, Corporate Solutions and Life Capital. The presentations as well as the conference call recordings from this event are available on: www.swissre.com/investors/presentations

In 2019, Swiss Re will host Management Dialogues with investors and analysts in London on 23 May to discuss current topics and will organise an Investors’ Day in Zurich on 25 November.

Swiss Re strictly observes close periods around the publication of the Group’s financial results. Close periods apply through the preparation of results or key financial data, and include a cooling-off period after their release. During such close periods, Swiss Re employees and members of the Board of Directors are not allowed to trade Swiss Re shares or financial instruments related to such shares.
