Zurich has officially launched its operations in the Polish corporate insurance market. The company has been operational since April, but did not disclose the planned sales volume or the insurance capacity available to Polish clients.

During a meeting on October 15, 2026, in Warsaw, group representatives discussed the development of specialized underwriting and cooperation with brokers.

Zurich operates as a branch of Zurich Austria. Zurich Ubezpieczenia Korporacyjne offers direct insurance, coinsurance, and reinsurance.

According to Luciano Cirinà, CEO of International Commercial and member of the Zurich Insurance Group's executive committee, and Kurt Möller, Head & CUO of Commercial Insurance Zurich Austria, Poland was chosen based on the size of its economy, growth of its businesses, and potential of the corporate insurance market. Kurt Möller noted the growing scale of operations of Polish companies and the demand for specialized coverage. Rafał Tokarz, CEO and CUO of Zurich Ubezpieczenia Korporacyjne, has announced a focus on specialized risk assessment and loss prevention.

The Polish branch is launching operations in a market already populated by insurers with international backing and well-developed underwriting teams. Zurich's position will therefore be determined not by the size of the group itself, but by the scope of coverage it provides to businesses and the terms of cooperation with brokers.
