Allianz Risk Transfer AG (ART AG) has relocated its headquarters from Liechtenstein to Switzerland, following approval by the relevant authorities, the Liechtenstein Financial Market Authority (FMA) and the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA).
The firm announced its decision to relocate approximately nine months ago, with the relocation effective July 1st, 2026.
In addition to ART AG’s previous headquarters in Schaan, Liechtenstein, it maintains two branches: in Zurich/Wallisellen, Switzerland, and in Bermuda.
The firm stated that the Liechtenstein branch will no longer be operational after this relocation; the registered office, the ART AG branch in Zurich/Wallisellen, will seamlessly continue its operations as the new headquarters of ART AG.
The branch in Bermuda will also remain in place, while ART AG will be supervised by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) in the future.
The move aims to streamline the firm’s presence in Europe, as Switzerland is an important international hub for complex insurance and reinsurance business. ART AG also aims to simplify its corporate structure, thereby reducing administrative complexity and improving operational efficiency.
Additionally, the move brings the company closer to its customers in Switzerland and to its international business network. Simultaneously, ART AG will utilise the existing Allianz Commercial platform in the European Economic Area (EEA), established within Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty SE, to serve its European customers outside of Switzerland.
The day-to-day operations of ART AG and its branch will continue without interruption. For ART AG’s corporate clients and brokers, there will be no practical changes with respect to their market contacts, services, terms and conditions for re/insurance contracts, or claims processing.
Currently, the firm maintains that this relocation will have no impact on ART AG’s current ratings (AA- from Standard & Poor’s).
