As one of the largest international insurance groups in Central and Eastern Europe, the Vienna Insurance Group feels that it shares responsibility for creating a future worth living. The Group therefore considers it an obligation to provide support for cultural and social concerns in Austria and the CEE region, and makes an important contribution to mutual understanding owing to the Group’s international collaboration across borders and between cultures.
In order to provide innovative products that are specially tailored to customer needs, the Vienna Insurance Group uses information on current social developments and demographic trends when creating insurance solutions.
The Group also tries to make socially compatible and resource-preserving innovations in processes and services, taking into account the concerns of all stakeholders and satisfying their need for information. Establishing an open and collaborative dialogue with stakeholders has proven to be an effective way to secure confidence in the Company, especially in economically difficult times.
The Vienna Insurance Group has a corporate culture of value creation, openness, and respect for others around us that is anchored in the values of the Group. Diversity and different talents and abilities are viewed as an advantage. The Vienna Insurance Group makes use of the potential inherent in its diversity.
