Corporate liability insurance

Cover the Risks Related to Your Professional Activities

In Switzerland, a company can be held liable for damages caused to third parties in the course of its professional activities: clients, suppliers, visitors, or even passersby. Corporate liability insurance covers these risks, whether they are material, bodily, or immaterial.

This insurance is often essential in the context of commercial relationships, construction sites, or service contracts, and sometimes even legally or contractually required.

Hevea Invest advises and assists you in setting up coverage tailored to your activity, sector, and contractual obligations.
