Swiss Life Insurance Group: Customer for 100 Years

Swiss Life Insurance Group celebrating its 101st birthday: Customer for 100 Years

It is the oldest life insurance group in Switzerland (since 1857). The company accompanies its customers throughout a lifetime.

The idea: A tribute to the customer who has been insured by Swiss Life the longest: Hans Knecht. His policy has been active for 100 years – and is still valid. We congratulated the 101st birthday of this healthy pensioner in a special way. We arranged for the entire edition of the renowned “Neue Zürcher Zeitung” to appear with the original front page from the day Hans Knecht was born: June 7, 1917. With a corresponding portrait on the first page inside.

This became possible through close cooperation with the editors-in-chief and the publisher. It was the first time in its more than 200-year history that the “Neue Zürcher Zeitung” did not appear with the current title page.
