My life before I joined Fisch Asset Management

Following my education at the Cantonal School, I began to gather my first experiences in the working world in 1987. It was only by coincidence that I landed in the banking business. In the back-office area of UBS and subsequently at Credit Suisse, I was able to increase my financial know-how by working at various trading desks.

Following these experiences with the big banks, I worked for a Swedish portfolio manager. I soon recognized that I was very interested in the IT area, and this motivated me to co-found a software company in 1994 that I was able to build up. We developed software for portfolio management, ranging from back-office applications to analytical tools.

I met Kurt Fisch during a round of golf. It just so happened that the young Fisch Asset Management at the time had substantial needs in the IT area. To make a long story short, FAM became a client of mine, and we got to know each other better as time went by.

I ended up joining FAM in 1996. As a result of this move, the software company BlueSky Softworks became a subsidiary of FAM.

My duties at Fisch Asset Management

Fisch Asset Management is a highly specialised company in many aspects and to permanently questioning and optimizing our products and procedures is of umtost importance to us. I am with Fisch since 1996 and together with my broad professional experience in IT and Asset Management I may be able to contribute my share on our way to the perfect company.

When I'm not working, then ...

... whenever the weather permits, I can be found on a golf course with friends. Otherwise, I like to improvise on the piano (jazz, bossa, ballads).

In autumn, I frequently enjoy sitting on the balcony or in the garden and gazing at the stars through my telescope (2000 mm, Schmidt-Cassegrain), with a good glass of wine in hand.

What significance do "fish" have in my life?

Fish are something that I prefer grilled.
