The Swiss Insurance Association (SIA) represents the interests of the private insurance industry at national and international level. The sector is one of the most productive and highest value-added sectors of the economy. With their risk coverage and hazard prevention, private insurers make a significant contribution to the stability of the economic system and prosperity within Switzerland. With that in mind, the SIA is committed to the sustainable development of the sector and its locations.
The study conducted by BAK Economics shows that the financial sector remains one of the most productive industries in the Swiss economy in 2021.
