Target remains below the SIX price

The new CHF 765.00 target is 13.54 percent below the SIX last price of CHF 884.80 on October 9, 2026. The valuation gap matters because JPMorgan's revised target still points below the market quotation, despite the increase from CHF 745.00.

The official Swiss Life document sets a maximum of 272,866 shares, equal to 0.98 percent of the share capital, and says the repurchased shares may be proposed for cancellation at future annual meetings, Swiss Life states.

Three milestones frame the story

On July 1, 2026, Swiss Life completed the TELIS Group acquisition, which adds 1,800 advisors to its operating unit, according to Yahoo Finance.
