Mirabaud hires Suter for Swiss market

|

In the newly created role of head of business development for the Swiss market, Suter will serve the needs of institutional investors in German-speaking Switzerland.

He will work alongside Patrick Stauffer, head of wholesale investors in the region.

The hire marks what the company calls the “latest milestone” in its expansion strategy, which was set in motion in 2011. The company has made a wide range of additions to its team since then, including senior hires from Blackrock, Aviva and F&C.

Suter moves from Altius Associates, where he built distribution for the company’s investment solutions, and he has also held positions at Credit Suisse and Macquarie Infrastructure.

Mirabaud’s head of sales and marketing, Bertrand Bricheux, said: “Suter’s arrival further strengthens our home market presence and answers significant demand from institutional and wholesale clients for our products and investment solutions.”

Suter’s appointment comes after the company hired David Basola as head of business development activities for Italy last month.

Basola joined the company from Syz & Co. in Italy and will serve the institutional and wholesale markets of investors in Italy, Malta, Monaco and Ticino in Switzerland.

Part of the Mirabaud Group, Mirabaud Asset Management has offices in Barcelona, Geneva, London, Paris and Zurich. It has CHF 8bn in assets under management and focuses exclusively on active management.
