Howden Switzerland

We are part of the largest European brokerage with clients all over the world!

Howden is a specialised insurance broker. We combine the strength of a global broker with a regional and personal focus. 
In Switzerland, Howden was founded in 2020. People and their skills have been put first from the beginning. We knew that this would pay off. This talent strategy is still in place today, and our clients are the ones who benefit most from it.
We are a dynamic company with a flat global structure and local managers responsible for their respective markets. Our advice on local laws, traditions, and trends comes from people who know and live with them.
As an independent local broker, we care about our clients' businesses and work hard to build lasting relationships. 
Complex and multinational risk management requires local experts. If expertise is lacking in Switzerland, we draw on the Howden network of 20,000 professionals. Wherever your global business takes you, you can be sure that our advice will consider local laws, nuances, and traditions.

Excellence

Our norms are clearly articulated and comprehensive. We work to a set of unique standards that provide practical guidance on matters such as Rules of Engagement and less frequently covered topics such as Non-Admitted Coverage and Tax.

Trust

We are independent, local brokers. It is one of our outstanding strengths. Howden and its partners share the same philosophy - a great deal of independence fostered by an owner-managed mindset. We are all in the business of delivering results.

Relationships

Everything is based on personal relationships. We often meet face to face because nothing is better than that. We aim to avoid becoming a faceless company, quite the opposite. Everyone works seamlessly as a team to serve you - invaluable in speeding up problem-solving. 

Regional approach

Howden is organised in a decentralised and unbureaucratic way. You get a local contact person who speaks your language and understands your concerns. At Howden, no bureaucracy puts obstacles in your way. Competent and efficient!
