On the occasion of this year's International Water Day on 22 March, Swiss Re is donating CHF 1 million to the International Committee of the Red Cross for an infrastructure project in Ethiopia which focuses on providing clean and sanitary water supply to the region's rural population.
Swiss Re reported net income of CHF 0.6 billion for the second quarter of 2008 despite the continuing challenging financial market environment.
