    Vertina Investment Foundation invested a total of CHF 74.3 million in four new-build projects in the first quarter of 2026. The fresh capital comes from the capital increase in the fourth quarter of 2025, according to a press release.

    The construction projects are located on properties in Oberglatt ZH, Kloten ZH, Seon AG and Zurich. These selected locations are characterised by good infrastructure connections and a solid market environment, according to the press release. After completion, the market value of the four properties will amount to CHF 131 million. This will increase the value of the total portfolio of the Vertina Residential investment group to CHF 350 million.

    In total, Vertina’s property portfolio consists of 13 properties with varying degrees of construction progress. The start of construction on four further projects is planned for the current financial year. As recently announced, Vertina will raise new capital of between CHF 60 and 80 million for this purpose in the second quarter.

    In addition, Adam Keswick will not stand for re-election as a member of the Board of Directors. The decision is based on his assessment that he is currently unable to adequately fulfil his obligations to Schindler due to time overlaps with Jardine Matheson’s Board meetings. All other members of the Board of Directors will stand for re-election at the Annual General Meeting on 19 March 2024. The Board of Directors has decided to postpone the age limit for Alfred N. Schindler and Luc Bonnard in accordance with the exception clause in the Executive Board regulations.

    Assuming his re-election, Tobias B. Staehelin will succeed Erich Ammann as a new member of the Supervisory and Strategy Committee.

    The Board of Directors has appointed Hugo Martinho (1971) to succeed Tobias B. Staehelin as a member of the Executive Board, responsible for Human Resources, with effect from 1 April 2024. Hugo Martinho has worked for Schindler since 2003 in various positions in Europe and Asia. He has been Head of Human Resources Europe North since 2022. Hugo Martinho holds a degree in law from the University of Coimbra, Portugal.
