Swiss Re in Zurich
Swiss Re is headquartered in Zurich where the parent company’s main premise has stood on the shores of Lake Zurich since 1864. From here Swiss Re has established more than 70 offices worldwide.
Today, the main offices of Swiss Re in Zurich offer a distinct touch to Mythenquai and with the renovation of the “Altbau” and its re-opening in June 2000, the “Altbau” became once again the centre of Swiss Re’s premises in Zurich. The formerly open courtyard of the “Altbau” is now covered with a roof of glass and thereby creates a feeling of a formal space, both visually and structurally.
An integral part of Swiss Re’s buildings in Zurich, though 10 minutes away, is Swiss Re’s Centre for Global Dialogue in Rüschlikon. Founded in November 2000 by Swiss Re, this unique setting of open space, halls and conference rooms offers a forum to deal with global risk issues and to facilitate new insight into future risk markets.
