Faster or slower than the rest?
SWICA rose +42.5 % over the period, against +47.1 % for the cheapest insurer in the same place. The gap narrowed — which does not mean this insurer is the cheapest today, only that it climbed more slowly.
The year that hurt — The steepest year-on-year jump was 2023: +17.1 % in one go.
Figures for an adult, CHF 300 deductible, accident cover included — the only profile defined identically across all twelve years. Each year this is the lowest premium the insurer offered, all models combined.
