Climate action

Our integrated Responsible Investing strategy includes our climate actions, reflected in our commitment to transition Swiss Re’s investment portfolio to net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050.

Climate-related financial disclosures (TCFD)

Swiss Re has been reporting climate-related information in line with TCFD recommendations and providing insights into these risks and opportunities in its investment portfolio since 2016. The 2021 section, which is fully integrated into our Financial Report 2021, includes further information on the following topics:


  • Enhanced reporting on carbon emissions for the investment portfolio
  • Intermediate emission reduction targets aiming to achieve a net-zero investment portfolio by 2050
  • Measurement and monitoring of the trajectory to net zero and increasingly active management of potential stranded asset risks
