About Swiss Family Insurance

Independent insurance guidance for individuals, families and expats in Switzerland.

Understand the Swiss insurance system with clear, independent information that helps you make informed decisions with confidence.

Our mission

Understand you first. Recommend second.

We start every conversation with your family — your household, health history, permits, dependants and the life stage ahead. Only once we understand that picture do we look at KVG basic cover, supplementary insurance, household, liability, life and the 3rd pillar as parts of a single, coherent plan.

Our recommendations come from your circumstances, long-term goals and the risks that genuinely apply to your household — not from a product shortlist. The result is Swiss insurance advice, in plain English, that you can act on with confidence.

We take on a limited number of families each year so we can stay close to every household we advise — and remain the same familiar contact years after the first meeting.

Caspar founded Swiss Family Insurance after seeing how often international families were left to decode the Swiss system on their own — in a second language, under real time pressure. He is your first point of contact and guides you through the entire advisory process.

Behind him sits an experienced team covering back-office, claims and specialist partners. So the personal contact remains, while every question — from the first analysis to long-term support — reaches the right expertise.

Consultations are held in English, German or Polish. Most families we advise stay with us year after year — because the relationship, not the transaction, is the point.

Our story

Built to make Swiss insurance understandable.

We started Swiss Family Insurance because we kept meeting the same families — bright, capable people who felt lost inside the Swiss insurance system. The rules change by canton, the paperwork arrives in German, French or Italian, and the difference between basic and supplementary cover is rarely explained in plain language.

We believe every family deserves to understand what they are paying for, and why. Our work is to translate complex Swiss insurance into clear, practical guidance — so you can compare options, ask the right questions and choose cover that genuinely fits your life.

Whether you are expecting a child, moving to Switzerland or reviewing your household cover, we help you cut through the noise and make confident decisions together — with the same advisors beside you over the years.

Editorial standard

Every Knowledge Centre article is published by Swiss Family Insurance and is reviewed before publication using trusted Swiss insurance sources and current market information.

Why we are independent

One insurer's interest is never the starting point.

As FINMA-registered independent insurance intermediaries, we compare solutions across the Swiss insurance market and arrange the cover that fits. What guides our recommendation is not a preferred provider, but a clear understanding of your family's circumstances, the risks that genuinely apply and the appropriate level of protection — health, household, liability, life and the 3rd pillar considered as one plan.

Broad market view

Solutions compared across a wide range of Swiss insurers, not narrowed to a single provider.

Needs-first advice

Grounded in your household, income, health situation and long-term plans.

Transparent by design

The options considered and the trade-offs behind each recommendation, explained in plain English.

Licensed intermediary

Regulated advice provided by FINMA-registered insurance intermediaries in cooperation with myhealth, supervised under Swiss law.

Professional expertise

Led by management with recognised Swiss financial advisory qualifications, including the IAF education pathway.

Ongoing partnership

A single point of contact for reviews, claims and life changes — well beyond the initial placement.

Considered process

Initial consultations are without obligation. Decisions are made in your own time, once the picture is complete.

Swiss landscape — insurance advice for families living in Switzerland
How we help clients

A single, coherent view of your family's cover.

Understand what applies to your situation, compare the options that genuinely fit, put the right cover in place — and refine it as circumstances change.

  • Health insurance — KVG basic cover and supplementary (VVG), including newborns within the statutory deadlines.
  • Household contents and personal liability, aligned with your Swiss home and family situation.
  • Life insurance and income protection for parents, single earners and international households.
  • 3rd pillar (pillar 3a) — long-term retirement planning and tax-efficient saving.
  • Structured reviews when family, income, canton or residency status changes.
Why families choose us

A long-term advisor, not a one-off transaction.

A new role, a child, a move between cantons — Swiss insurance quietly shifts around your family. We stay close to those changes, so your cover continues to reflect the life you actually lead. Many of the families who first spoke to us years ago are still with us today.

English-speaking

Every conversation, document and follow-up is handled in clear, precise English.

Expat-aware

B and C permits and non-Swiss health history are familiar terrain.

Family-focused

Parents, children and newborns are considered as one household, not separate policies.

Long-term partner

A single point of contact for reviews, claims and the decisions that follow life changes.
