Insurers are renowned for their ability to formulate strategies, so Backchat was less than surprised to discover that Swiss Re has all the bases covered when it comes to moving into its new home in London's 'erotic gherkin'.
Despite discovering cracks in some of the giant glass panels that form the gherkin's skin, Swiss Re maintains that it will move in on time. How?
According to a spokeswoman an eight-week "glass replacement strategy" is underway so that company's 800-strong workforce can move in from mid-December as originally planned.
The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
