VIG makes itself fit for the future

VIG concentrates on its core business, namely providing insurance solutions and services that best address people’s demand for security and provision.

VIG’s regional focus is on Austria and CEE while taking advantage of the many growth opportunities in this region. Different levels of economic and insurance-specific maturity of these markets guarantees broad risk diversification.

VIG’s decentralised organisational structure provides local management and employees the flexibility needed for their business operations. In the end, they know the needs of the local population and special features of the market best. This allows distribution and products to be adjusted optimally to local conditions. VIG Holding is responsible for Group management.

VIG consciously relies on locally established brands, as this allows it to address different target groups directly and personally in its 50 Group companies in 25 markets. It also strengthens its regional identity and creates greater customer and employee loyalty to the company. Adding “Vienna Insurance Group” to the local brand names conveys the international stature and strength of the Group.

VIG uses its own field employees, brokers and agents, multi-level marketing, direct and digital sales. Bank distribution is also very important. The cooperation that began in 2008 with Erste Group, which also has a strong presence in the CEE region, was extended ahead of schedule in 2018 until the end of 2033.

VIG is responsible for EUR 37,635.6 million in investments (including cash and cash equivalents). Security and sustainability are crucial for these investments. Most of the investments are in bonds and real estate. To obtain the optimal risk balance, risks are pooled at Group level and part of the risk is outsourced to the international reinsurance market.

VIG thinks about today and tomorrow. In addition to its economic goals, it also has social and environmental goals. Detailed information on the sustainability strategy is available in the Sustainability Report starting on page 6.
