Our company

In order to be flexible, professional and efficient, a company must be properly organised. Our company structure is therefore both flat and lean. Partners are responsible for strategy, management for operations. This allows us to provide optimal working conditions for our client service teams, so they can build personal, long-lasting relationships with our clients.

Management

Asset Management Switzerland is a proprietor-run company. Management runs the company’s strategy and operations, in the form of a lean organisation. The company and its management’s longstanding relationships and high social competence are central to this organisation, as transparency is important to our clients as well as to our partners and employees when creating sustainable company policy. Our management has two sections. CEO Costantino Pinelli is head of strategy and CIO Dr. Torsten Dennin is in charge of investments.

Our client advisors

Our advisors have therefore been able to build up a large base of satisfied individual and corporate clients.

 

We place great value on complying with the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority’s requirements and constantly being informed about the newest products on the market. Utmost discretion is our top priority. Solid basic training and a recognized qualification are the minimum requirements to work for Asset Management Switzerland.

 

Even our young talents are therefore studying to gain an accredited degree for our field. At the same time, they are also gaining a great deal of practical experience by attending intensive courses as well as carrying out their first client meetings alongside experienced financial advisors.

Success is measured not by victories, but by yearly progress.
