A professional insurance comparison - the insurance broker makes it possible

Are you interested in an insurance comparison and would like to work in this field? Insurance brokers work in the interests of insurance companies in the area of acquiring new customers as well as accompanying, advising and supporting existing policyholders. Insurance brokers work in the interests of their customers and are always looking for the best possible insurance solution. This means that they should have a comprehensive and in-depth knowledge of insurance and its services in order to offer customers the most professional service possible. They are also well versed and competent in the areas of insurance comparison and contract law.

 

In the field of insurance brokerage, a distinction is made between so-called "tied agents" (primarily acting on behalf of insurance companies) and "non-tied agents" (primarily acting on behalf of customers). Insurance brokers provide their customers with an insurance comparison to illustrate the advantages and disadvantages of the individual insurance policies. This comparison helps customers to get a good overview of the costs and benefits and their relationship.

 

Would you also like to work as an insurance intermediary, but are still looking for a suitable training opportunity? On Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch, we present you with an overview of all renowned Swiss schools with the "Insurance intermediary (cert.)" course as well as other training and further education courses in the insurance industry, such as social insurance clerk, insurance specialist, health insurance expert (HFP) and many more with a focus on health insurance, insurance and insurance comparison.

Questions and answers

If you hold the Insurance Intermediary VBV certificate, it is possible to apply for the European eficert (European Insurance Intermediary Ell) certificate, which allows you to carry out insurance comparisons throughout Europe.

In order to be able to carry out an independent insurance comparison as an insurance intermediary, in addition to the VBV certificate, you also need an entry in the register of the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA. This registration is necessary for an independent intermediary, but requires that, in addition to the professional qualifications acquired through the VBV certificate or equivalent training, he or she must not have a criminal record that is incompatible with working as an intermediary and must not be in possession of any certificates of indebtedness. Professional liability insurance with cover of at least CHF 2 million or comparable financial security must also be in place.

A useful training course to be able to carry out an independent insurance comparison is, for example, the VBV Insurance Broker Certificate course. After completing the course, you will be able to show and sell insurance products that are individually and seriously tailored to the customer.

After passing the examinations to become an insurance intermediary, you will receive a certificate from the VBV, the Vocational Training Association of the Insurance Industry. This qualification entitles you to be entered in the register of independent intermediaries at FINMA, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority, which is necessary in order to be allowed to carry out an independent insurance comparison (Art. 43, para. 1 ISA).
