Zurich reports 11 percent growth in protection premiums

In November 2026, Zurich Insurance Group reported that protection gross written premiums grew 11% in the first nine months of the year. The update for the period ended 30 September cites performance across individual and group products, strong renewals and new corporate protection wins. It does not report a separate growth rate for group protection.

Total Life volumes increased 3% to USD 28.6 billion on a measure that combines protection premiums with gross policyholder inflows, including deposits, for other lines.

The Zurich update signals strong activity in corporate protection which can help framing questions about local underwriting and service.
