    With this decision, the separation of the shareholders of two major players in the Swiss real estate market is completed.

    Stéphane Bonvin is CEO and majority shareholder of the Investis Group, which has also been listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange since June 2016. Founded in 1994, Investis Group is a leading real estate company in the Lake Geneva region and a national leader in real estate services.

    Patrimonium Asset Management AG, based in Baar and with offices in Lausanne/Crissier and Zurich, manages assets of CHF 4 billion (as of June 30, 2022), of which CHF 2.9 billion in the real estate sector and CHF 1.1 billion in the remaining private markets private debt, infrastructure and private equity.

    Christoph Syz: “We founded Patrimonium Asset Management together with Stéphane Bonvin 15 years ago and we can look back on a very constructive and successful collaboration. After Stéphane has not been operationally active at Patrimonium for several years, the purchase of his block of shares by me and Daniel is the logical step. We will continue the good cooperation between our two groups of companies and thank Stéphane for the joint success in building Patrimonium to date.”

    Stéphane Bonvin says: “Founding Patrimonium has allowed me to enter the institutional real estate business. Thanks to this success and the experience I have gained, I was also able to drive the Investis Group forward and also list it more than six years ago. I would also like to thank my colleagues for the excellent cooperation”

    Mr. Bonvin is also leaving the Patrimonium Board of Directors at the same time.
