Swiss Prime Site Solutions becomes AMAS member

Basel, 13 September 2023 - The real estate manager Swiss Prime Site Solutions has joined the Asset Management Association Switzerland (AMAS). The new member belongs to the Swiss Prime Site Group and is an enrichment for the association. Swiss Prime Site Solutions will play an active role in shaping the Swiss asset management industry within AMAS.

The real estate manager Swiss Prime Site Solutions is the latest active member of the Asset Management Association Switzerland (AMAS). By joining, AMAS expands its membership to include one of the largest providers of investment solutions and services for the real estate industry. Swiss Prime Solutions is a group company of Swiss Prime Site, one of the leading real estate companies in Switzerland and Europe. It was founded in 2017.

After obtaining FINMA authorisation as a fund management company, Swiss Prime Site Solutions launched its first investment fund. In 2022, it acquired and integrated the Zug-based real estate manager Akara, bringing its assets under management to around CHF 8 billion today. The company, which has over 80 employees, is also active in investment consulting for third-party clients, namely collective investment products for Swiss pension funds, and manages their real estate portfolios.

"Swiss Prime Site Solutions is one of the largest independent asset managers for real estate solutions in Switzerland. Therefore, joining AMAS was an obvious choice. We are pleased to be part of the association and thus to have the opportunity to actively shape the asset management industry in Switzerland. It also gives us the chance to have a say in the shaping of guidelines and templates in the field of asset management and funds," says Anastasius Tschopp, CEO Swiss Prime Site Solutions.

"The accession of Swiss Prime Site Solutions is a confirmation that AMAS and its initiatives in the area of real estate investments, for example the best practice for environmentally relevant key figures, are highly relevant for Swiss real estate managers. AMAS is looking forward to the future cooperation with this strong partner. This will benefit the real estate sector as a whole, which is so important for Swiss asset management," says AMAS CEO Adrian Schatzmann.
