Your insurance advisors in Bern

Are you looking for insurance advice in Bern that looks at your policies, your employer's group contracts and the statutory benefits together – instead of selling each cover on its own? Then you are in the right place.

Our advisors at Kornhausplatz 14 work independently of insurance companies. We first review what you already have, and only then talk about changes.

Bern is shaped by public-sector and federally affiliated employers, associations, hospitals and a broad base of trades. Those employed here often have good group solutions – and sometimes buy the very same cover a second time privately.

Whether health insurance, household contents and liability, disability, life, or the protection of your business – we meet you where you stand today.

In person in the heart of Bern's old town – or online, whichever you prefer.

What sets our insurance advice in Bern apart

tailor-made. holistic. for you. – this promise shapes our daily work. Our insurance advice in Bern begins with listening and ends with an overview that you decide on yourself. Three principles carry it:

Group contract and private policy read together

Public-sector and federally affiliated employers in Bern frequently offer strong group solutions for accident, daily sickness benefits and death. We read your pension fund statement and your private policies together – and check what remains when you leave.

City of Bern or surrounding region

In the canton of Bern, health insurance is calculated across several premium regions, and the building insurance runs through the cantonal institution. A move to the agglomeration or to the Seeland therefore changes more than just your address.

Independent of company and product

We don't represent an insurance company, we represent you. You pay for the analysis and the recommendation; any commissions are disclosed. We compare conditions – not just premiums.

For your coverage to fit your life, it takes a proper stocktake rather than a gut feeling. Our insurance advice in Bern follows a clear process.

How to proceed – Insurance advice in Bern

1. Non-binding first consultation (free of charge)
We get to know each other – at Kornhausplatz, by phone or by video. You describe your situation, we show you how we work. Without selling pressure.
2. Taking stock of your coverage
Health insurance policy, household contents and liability, motor vehicle, life and disability cover, plus your pension fund statement and your employer's group contracts – we bring it all together in one overview.
3. Assessment and recommendations
We show which risks are already covered, where you are paying twice, and where a real gap exists. Every recommendation is explained in a way you can follow.
4. Market comparison and implementation
We obtain offers from several companies, compare conditions rather than premiums alone, and take care of the correspondence – from the cancellation to checking the new policy.
5. Ongoing support and claims
At least once a year we review coverage, premiums and conditions – plus every job change, move or new family member that changes the picture. In the event of a claim, we are your point of contact toward the insurer.

Who is our insurance advice in Bern suitable for?

Bern combines public-sector employers, associations and educational institutions with a broad base of trades and a great deal of home ownership in the surrounding region. Our advice is for everyone who wants to turn that into clear protection – with insurance and health insurance, retirement provision and taxes as parts of the same calculation.

You will find an overview of all locations on our page Insurance Advice Switzerland.

Employees in the public and federally affiliated sector

Your group solution is often good – but it ends with the employment relationship. We show which benefits fall away when you leave, move into the private sector or become self-employed, and what replaces them.

Families in the city and the agglomeration

Deductible, insurance model, supplementary cover for the children, household contents when you move, liability for the household: we go through the decisions with you instead of selling you a package.

SMEs, trades and associations

Business liability, property and business interruption cover, daily sickness benefits and the pension fund affiliation belong in one shared view – together with the private protection of the owners.

People approaching retirement

When employment ends, accident cover through the employer and other group benefits fall away. We clarify in good time what needs to be arranged anew – and what you can cancel.

We handle questions such as these on a daily basis. Is yours missing? Just fill in the form at the top of this page – we will get back to you.

Go to the Form

You will find us at Kornhausplatz 14, 3011 Bern – in the middle of the old town and just a few minutes from the main station. Appointments are also possible by video.

The initial consultation is free of charge and non-binding. After that we work on a fee basis – as a flat rate for a defined mandate or at an hourly rate. You know the scope before we begin.

Both describe the same role: we don't represent an insurance company, we represent you. We compare offers from several providers, explain the conditions, and remain your point of contact after the contract is signed – including in the event of a claim.

Especially then. Group solutions in the public sector are often comprehensive – which frequently leads to the same cover being paid for a second time privately. Conversely, the protection ends with the employment relationship. We review both sides.

In the canton of Bern, building insurance runs through the cantonal institution; household contents, personal liability and supplementary cover, on the other hand, you choose freely on the market. We show which part is negotiable and which is not.

Yes. You can have the consultation on site at Kornhausplatz or entirely by video call – whichever works better for you.
