At Swiss Life Asset Management we concentrate exclusively on our asset management activities. We do not engage in stock-exchange trading ourselves, preferring to work with various brokers. This ensures that orders can be executed on the best possible terms. From which you profit directly. Neither do we offer custody services. You are thus free to choose your preferred custodian bank. This focused business model allows us to consistently apply our know how to optimising the performance of your investments.

Our experience as an asset manager and our above-average performance record have shown us just how important independence is in this business. This is an advantage that we pass on to you: As an institutional client you particularly wish to avoid your assets being exposed to any conflicts of interest, thus always allowing objectively correct decisions to be taken. Moreover, with the increasing emphasis on corporate governance these days, the ensuing transparency is an aspect that is becoming ever more important.


Many years of experience in institutional asset management

As part of a life insurance group we have been involved in managing assets for more than 150 years now - assets which are matched by liabilities. Certain regulatory differences aside, the management of pension fund assets is no different to that of insurance assets. Both pension fund and life insurer alike must generate targeted returns to match their liabilities structure and both are faced with the same parameters (e.g minimum interest rate, conversion rate). This is why you can profit from our sound understanding of the requirements of pension funds. Our exclusive focus on the investment needs of institutional clients combined with our many years of specialist competence in this area puts us head and shoulders above the competition.
