The merger of CapitalLeben and Swiss Life (Liechtenstein) AG was finalised as at 1 October 2007. The two companies will henceforth operate under the Swiss Life name.
After the requisite authorisations had been obtained, Swiss Life took over CapitalLeben on 27 March 2007. The merger of CapitalLeben and Swiss Life (Liechtenstein) AG was finalised as at 1 October.
