ABOUT ME

Jörg Grünenwald
Insurance & Risk Management Executive
As a Senior Insurance & Risk Management Executive, I have gained broad experience and expertise over 30 years in the international corporate insurance business.
With Zurich Insurance Group as one of the leading international companies, I have acquired special know-how in the field of corporate underwriting across non-life business including Casualty, Financial Lines and Property Insurance. It also included the management of Zurich’s integrated multiline/multiyear corporate business in Europe.
In the area of Risk Management, I have gained insight and expertise by leading and managing the placement of the world-wide own Group Insurance Programs for the Zurich Insurance Group. This included oversight and responsibility for the self-insured retention of the Zurich Group as part of a Captive Reinsurance Program.
For Chubb Insurance in Switzerland, I had responsibility and oversight across all Lines of Business as Major Account Segment Leader for Switzerland’s Top 300 international companies in the SMI and SPI. Beside executing Chubb’s Strategy and assuming P&L responsibility for the Major Account Segment, this role also encompassed customer relationship management, business development as well as portfolio management.
