Valiant and Vaudoise cooperate on mortgages
According to the financial services provider Valiant and Vaudoise Insurance, the two companies intend to cooperate in the mortgage business in the future. Both SMEs and private individuals are to benefit from this.
Bank Valiant and insurer Vaudoise launched a mortgage cooperation on March 2, 2021. The insurer Vaudoise will continue to advise its customers on all matters relating to the financing of residential properties and would like to meet the expectations of its customers in the mortgage sector even better, according to a corresponding media release. In the future, the insurance company will refer more complex financing directly to the financial services provider Valiant and its specialists. According to the two companies, this is intended to create an improved customer experience. It should also work well culturally: Due to their size, corporate culture and also geographically, the two service providers would complement each other well, the announcement continues. The promise is a solid partnership in the service of customer satisfaction.
Valiant and Vaudoise: Complementary offer
Vaudoise - which is one of the ten largest private insurers in Switzerland and was founded in 1895 - is supplementing its own existing mortgage offering with this collaboration. SMEs and private customers will now have a wider choice for mortgage financing for their businesses and projects. "The collaboration with Valiant gives us the opportunity to offer our clients comprehensive mortgage solutions," says Jean-Daniel Laffely, CEO of Vaudoise Insurance and head of over 1,650 employees, including 100 apprentices and people in training. The insurance company has cooperative roots and passes on part of its profits to its customers in the form of premium refunds. In 2020, this amounted to 34 million Swiss francs.
Cooperation promises greater business volume
On the other hand, Valiant gains a new partnership and can increase its business volume thanks to Vaudoise's well-developed distribution capabilities. "I am looking forward to the cooperation with Vaudoise, which is a very good fit for Valiant," says Ewald Burgener, CEO of Valiant. "The fact that Vaudoise and Valiant are leveraging synergies gives us additional options for further development."
The independent financial services provider Valiant serves clients exclusively in Switzerland and is locally anchored at 97 locations in 13 cantons. The balance sheet total amounts to CHF 33.2 billion. The bank employs over 1,000 people, including 80 trainees.
