I cannot find a proper travel insurance that covers work related travel. All major companies seem to exclude "Geschäftsreisen" (company travels). I know our university does not provide this cover, nor do colleagues know an alternative. (They seem to travel without appropriate cover ).

Since I am going to the US, I really would prefer cover that does not exclude work related travel! Any tips from anyone would be really appreciated. (I have googled much but no luck yet).

Anyone? If you know any company that will insure private people for business travel, please let me know

Ok, finally found one. http://www.swissinsurancepartners.co...vel-insurance/

is a Danish company covering Switzerland for 200 CHF per year, 152 CHF the second year.

What do you need it for exactly?

If you need an insurance to cover flight cancellation, luggage lost etc..try Elvia-Versicherungen, which specialized as travel-insurance compagny.

On the other hand, your health insurance will cover health problems abroad as well.

Or even die Mobiliar or Allianz...etc...

I hope this helps...
