Last week proved to be another volatile week of trading, with equities ultimately closing on Friday with double-digit returns. Ian Slattery reports.
At Zurich, our focus over the last number of weeks has been to provide a continuity of service for key transactions, working to limit the disruption for you and your clients, and implementing our work from home practices.
Zurich is proud to support Senior Times magazine’s new podcast series where broadcasting legend Mike Murphy interviews prominent Irish figures. In the first episode President Michael D. Higgins talks childhood, presidency, poetry and much more. And Zurich's Kristen Foran talks about the importance of starting a pension and financial planning for the future.
Research reveals one-in-ten Irish people have been the victims of online bullying, and as part of the Tackle Your Feelings campaign, rugby player Jack Carty is urging people to be supportive on social media.
We hope you can join the team at Zurich Investments for a live Investment Webinar on Wednesday 18 March at 2pm where Chief Investment Officer, David Warren, and his team will discuss investment markets in the context of the recent extreme volatility prompted by COVID-19.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, understandably we have received an increased number of calls and queries with regard to coverage under the Zurich range of Protection products. So to help reassure clients, we have put together this note with regard to our policies.
While the last week has been challenging and the uncertainty brought on by the advancement of COVID-19 is concerning to all, Zurich’s Business Resilience Team has been meeting daily to ensure we have contingency plans in place to deal with this outbreak.
Based on market demand, Zurich have now added Protection products to their popular ‘Pre-sales Report’. The Pre-sales Report, which can only be accessed through the secure Broker Dashboard on ZurichBroker.ie, allows you to create bespoke, tailored, branded reports for prospective customers in a matter of minutes.
