Swiss Re shareholders have approved all proposals put forward by the Board of Directors at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on April 11, 2025. The decisions included approving an ordinary dividend of USD 7.35 per share for the financial year 2024, reflecting the company's strong capital position and management priorities.
The dividend, which will be converted into Swiss francs from voluntary profit reserves, will be distributed starting April 17, 2025. From April 15, Swiss Re shares will trade ex-dividend.
During the AGM, shareholders elected Morten Hübbe and George Quinn as new Board members for a one-year term. All proposed members of the Board of Directors were re-elected for another one-year term along with members of the Compensation Committee.
Swiss Re's Chairman Jacques de Vaucleroy expressed gratitude to shareholders for their support and trust in the Board: "We continue to work with the management team on further enhancing Swiss Re's resilience, optimizing profitability, and maximizing shareholder returns."
Additional approvals during the AGM included acceptance of various reports such as the Annual Report and Compensation Report for 2024. Shareholders also discharged Board members from liability and re-elected both the Independent Proxy and Auditor. Approval was given to extend the capital band for two more years.
Details on voting results and minutes from the AGM are accessible on Swiss Re’s website, along with a replay of proceedings and speeches from key executives.
Upcoming financial disclosures include results for Q1 on May 16, half-year results on August 14, nine-month results on November 14, and full-year results for 2025 set to be released on February 27, 2026.
