The mathematician and actuary Monika Wieneke will become Head of the "Risk, Actuarial & Security" division and a member of the Executive Board of AXA Switzerland as of September 1.

The Board of Directors of AXA Switzerland has appointed Monika Wieneke as the new Head of "Risk, Actuarial & Security" and member of the Executive Board as of September 1.
The 43-year-old has been Chief Risk Officer and Head of Value Risk Management at AXA Germany since 2020, where she has made a name for herself with the development of differentiated risk strategies, an integrated risk culture and the holistic assessment of climate risks. Prior to this, the German national worked for 15 years at a large consultancy firm. Wieneke specialized there in risk management for insurance companies, gaining in-depth experience with Solvency II and IFRS 17, among other things.
A graduate mathematician, she trained as an actuary and has been a full member of the German Actuarial Association (Deutsche Aktuarsvereinigung e.V.) ever since.
"After a number of talented colleagues from AXA Switzerland have moved to positions of responsibility in other AXA units in recent years, I am delighted that we will be able to benefit from the Group's talent pool for once. As an integrative personality with many years of international experience, great expertise in risk management and a strong strategic mindset, Monika is ideally suited for this key position with us. I wish her a good start with us and every success and fulfillment in her new role," explains Fabrizio Petrillo, CEO of AXA Switzerland.
The appointment of Monika Wieneke is subject to the necessary regulatory approvals.
