Helvetia launches new social series under new brand claim

Executive Signal Summary

Zurich agency Pas Mal produced a new season of Helvetia's social-media series about a shared flat, timed to the market launch of the merged Helvetia brand (post-fusion with Baloise) on July 1. The three new videos — one longer hero piece and two shorter hub videos — run under the claim "Sicher geht das" and feature skier Daniel Yule and actor Ramin Yousofzai. The films will be distributed organically and as paid ads on Meta, TikTok and YouTube; Helvetia reports 7.5 million impressions for the hero video and 900,000 and 1.6 million impressions for the two hub pieces. Helvetia did not disclose total campaign budget or historical spend comparisons. Communications lead Tobias Ritter and Pas Mal Creative Director Jonas Bayona are quoted about the format's longevity and production investment.

The rollout begins with a wide image and awareness push over summer and will continue in an always-on approach across TV, OOH, DOOH, print, social and online formats through the end of 2026. The platform follows the Helvetia–Baloise fusion and Helvetia Baloise Holding's unified brand rollout in February 2026.

Helvetia launches 'Sicher geht das' campaign with optimism study

Helvetia has published a 'Zuversichtsstudie' (optimism study) showing that 80% of the Swiss population look optimistically to the next year and has launched a broad-brand campaign with the leitmotif "Sicher geht das". Company representatives Markus Bucheli and Raul Serrat say the study informed creative thinking: it highlighted that optimism often stems from relationships and that financial constraints remain a major barrier to life goals. The study shows differences by income, age and language region (noting lower optimism in the Romandie). The campaign aims to reposition Helvetia from purely handling claims toward enabling decisions around saving, retirement and home ownership. Helvetia has not yet committed to whether the study will be repeated periodically.
