Swiss Re willing to acquire a direct insurer

Swiss Re is interested in investing in the direct market in order to build market shares in high-growth potential economies. This strategy has been used by the Swiss reinsurer particularly in China and in Brazil. Swiss Re has, therefore, invested roughly 493 million USD to acquire a 4.9% stake in New China Life Company in 2013.

In 2016, the group took over IHC Risks Solutions, a company specialized in health insurance, for the amount of 152.5 million USD.
