Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance (BHSI), part of the Berkshire Hathaway group, has announced the launch of two new Executive First Directors & Officers (D&O) liability insurance policies in Switzerland.
The new policies are designed separately for commercial and industrial organisations, and for financial institutions and investment managers.
These primary D&O offerings underline BHSI’s focus on delivering straightforward, adaptable cover supported by clear and transparent policy wording. Each policy is structured to meet the specific requirements of its target sector.
They can also form part of multinational insurance programmes, with master policies issued in Switzerland and locally admitted policies available in more than 178 countries.
Alongside its Executive First D&O Liability Insurance, BHSI continues to broaden its presence in Switzerland. Its capabilities now include tailored property damage and business interruption insurance, casualty insurance, and multinational insurance solutions.
“Swiss organisations and their leaders face an increasingly complex risk environment,” commented Christoph Kammermann, Head of Executive & Professional Lines, Switzerland, BHSI. “With our new Executive First D&O policies, we are delivering clear, current coverage, purposefully built for today’s D&O liability exposures – and backed by the security of BHSI’s financial strength and claims is our product philosophy.”
“These launches mark another important milestone in building our sustainable long-term business in Switzerland,” added Franco Masciovecchio, Country Manager, Switzerland, BHSI. “We continue to invest in building our talented team, expanding our product lines, and creating strong and lasting business relationships with brokers and customers countrywide.”
