"In Switzerland, Helvetia works together with Baloise Bank Ltd as a specialised financial services provider. The combination of an insurance company and bank, which is unique in Switzerland, provides customers with all-round consultation and solutions tailored to their needs.
The Asset Management of Helvetia accommodates the growing demand of the Group and of third-party customers for high-quality financial products and qualified portfolio management, while strengthening the positioning of Helvetia as a leading financial services provider in Switzerland.
On 8 December 2025, Baloise and Helvetia merged to form a single group named Helvetia. The merger took place on an equality basis between the two companies.
The direction of our strategy is aimed at further strengthening the long-term reliability that we offer to our customers, shareholders, sales partners and employees in order to create lasting value for all our stakeholders.
