Central Switzerland insurance broker takes over two companies in Thalwil

The business of insurance and pension brokers in Switzerland, like the entire financial industry, is undergoing a transformation. In view of the ever more complex regulatory requirements, rapidly increasing digitalization and constantly rising pressure on margins, more and more brokers are combining to form larger units. Neutrass, which was founded in 1988 and has over 60 employees, is also following this trend and is one of the largest owner-managed insurance brokers in Switzerland. The company is now expanding its core region of Central Switzerland into the Lake Zurich area and taking over the two Thalwil-based, also owner-managed insurance brokers Kuster Consulting AG and INSUREit AG. These two companies have experienced high customer growth over the past few years. Their owners, Willi Staub and Ernst Uhlmann, are looking forward to working with a service and customer-oriented broker that relies on many years of experience and a strong team, according to a statement to the media.

Proud to be a Swiss company

Neutrass covers a broad range of specialist competencies, which are continuously and systematically strengthened. More than ten locations throughout Switzerland underline values such as customer proximity and regional presence. The company's corporate cultures are an excellent fit, the company adds. Neutrass states that it will remain owner-managed and that it places great emphasis on Swiss values: quality, reliability and competence. The company promises to continue its commitment to providing neutral and professional insurance and pension advice to small, medium-sized and large companies as well as public institutions in the Lake Zurich region.

Activity as an insurance broker has changed

Only 25 years ago, just under 20 percent of companies and self-employed persons were serviced by a broker. Today, the figure is around 70 percent. The focus is no longer on premium savings alone. Today, brokerage is much more complex: Clients expect impeccable coverage and benefits, as well as more relief in insurance and employee benefits administration. They also want many additional services, such as absence and case management, claims support, personnel orientation, pension and financial planning. These services and added values are accordingly also part of the Neutrass offering.

A-broker status with insurance companies

Rotkreuz-based Neutrass works on a brokerage basis with more than 50 renowned insurance companies and other financial service providers. Due to its size, longevity and quality, Neutrass enjoys, according to its own information, a very high reputation among product and solution suppliers and the status of an A-broker. This enables the company to negotiate more advantageous products, solutions and conditions for its SME and industrial customers from all sectors of the economy as well as public institutions.
