Posted by Libby Bramston on
Bedrock, the global investment and advisory firm, today announces the opening of its new office in Zurich.
With its new Zurich office, located at Stockerstrasse 23, Bedrock is expanding its global network that already comprises offices in Geneva, London and Monaco. The Zurich team will focus on further growing Bedrock’s businesses in Switzerland and in international markets, especially Europe and the Middle East.
Bedrock’s Zurich office is headed by Alexander Classen, who joined the group as Managing Partner in 2016. The Zurich-based team is rounded out by Stefan Muelheim and Konstantin Panoussopoulos, who both have many years of experience in international wealth management and investment advisory, and recently joined Bedrock as Partners focussing on client relationship management.
The Zurich office will leverage Bedrock’s global capabilities and infrastructure as a leading multi-family office and provider of innovative investment solutions and services to families and institutions. Its wealth and asset management services include the development and management of bespoke investment programmes across different asset classes with access to privileged investment opportunities and specialised funds in areas such as technology and alternative credit. Bedrock also offers institutional-level corporate finance solutions to clients who own businesses. Furthermore, with its offering of specialised IT solutions through BRT, the group services independent asset managers and private banks, providing consolidated reports on assets and liabilities, as well as tailored risk management solutions.
Alexander Classen, Managing Partner of Bedrock, said:
“The opening of our new office in Zurich marks another step in further growing Bedrock’s comprehensive and tailor-made investment solutions and services. Located in one of Europe’s key financial centres, the Zurich office will allow us to strengthen our client coverage in Switzerland and abroad, based on Bedrock’s global capabilities. It is with great pleasure that I welcome Stefan Muelheim and Konstantin Panoussopoulos to our Zurich team. Together, and with the help of more senior hires to come, we look forward to further expanding our company’s footprint as a provider of excellent investment and advisory solutions for our clients.”
