Winterthur Insurance Company Ltd., established in Winterthur in 1875, was a multiline insurance company. In 1962 Winterthur took over the “Eidgenössische” (Federal) multiline

insurance company, the first Credit Insurer in Europe, which had been established in 1881 in Zürich and had offered Credit Insurance since 1906. “Eidgenössische” started to write Guarantee Insurance in 1921 and was a founding member of the ICIA in 1928.

After the takeover in 1962, the “Eidgenössische” became the specialized company of Winterthur for Credit Insurance and Bond business active both in its own name as well as on behalf of Winterthur. In 2003 the “Eidgenössische” was merged into its parent company. Since 2007 Winterthur belongs to the AXA Group. In March 2018, the move from AXA Winterthur to the AXA brand was made. Business is now running under the name of AXA, Credit, Surety & CLP.

The execution of our strategy, marked by a series of actions, is proceeding as planned and is set to be successfully and consistently implemented. The ongoing refinement of the operating model remains a crucial focal point and a key lever in our strategic approach. Additionally, the launch of new products (e.g. for trade credit insurance) and the successful implementation of a new set-up for the distribution of trade credit insurance on the Italian market is also worth highlighting.
