Advisory and investment expertise from a single source

The experienced advisors specialise in asset accumulation and asset diversification, always via a holistic approach. With attractive investment solutions, customers benefit directly from the over 165 years of experience and expertise in institutional asset management of Swiss Life Asset Managers, one of the largest asset managers in Switzerland. "For the first time, our investment experts are now also offering private individuals individually tailored asset management that was previously reserved for institutional investors. Besides long-term earnings targets, this service also comprises tailored risk management and offers our customers financial confidence in all aspects," says Stefan Mächler, Chief Investment Officer of the Swiss Life Group. 

Opening of the first location in Zurich
Swiss Life Wealth Managers entered the market today with the opening of its first location: as of now customers will attend consultations in the premises at Tödistrasse 38 in Zurich. There will also shortly be a second location in Winterthur. Swiss Life Wealth Managers will open additional locations in the coming years and thus expand its offering to other regions in Switzerland.

Growth in fee business supports the "Swiss Life 2024" strategy
With Swiss Life Wealth Managers, the Swiss Life Group is complementing its already strong range of advisory services addressing various customer needs and segments in Switzerland and thus supporting the targets of the "Swiss Life 2024" strategic programme. Swiss Life has set itself the goal of increasing assets under management for private clients in its home market to over CHF 6.5 billion by 2024. The development of the affluent segment is to make a significant contribution to this ambition and to support long-term growth in fee business.
