Switzerland has long been a cornerstone of global private banking and wealth management and as demand for private markets continues to accelerate, the need for robust, scalable infrastructure has never been greater.
That’s why we’re excited to share that Titanbay has established a Swiss Advisory Board, marking another important milestone in our growth across Switzerland and the wider EMEA region.
Why a Swiss Advisory Board?
Private markets are evolving fast. Swiss private banks and wealth managers are increasingly integrating alternatives into client portfolios, but doing so responsibly requires the right operational foundations, governance and local expertise.
Our Swiss Advisory Board will act as a strategic sounding board, helping us stay closely aligned with local market dynamics while continuing to build infrastructure that genuinely supports the needs of Swiss institutions and their clients.
In short: local insight, global ambition.
Meet the Advisory Board
We’re proud to be working with some of the most respected leaders in the Swiss and European investment community.
Stefan Mächler, former CIO at Swiss Life Group, brings more than 30 years of experience across investment management, asset allocation and corporate leadership.
“Titanbay has built an impressive platform that addresses a real structural need in private markets. I look forward to supporting the business as it continues to scale in Switzerland.”
Yves Robert Charrue, Former Executive Board Member and Head of Switzerland & EMEA at Julius Baer, adds over two decades of private banking expertise.
“As private markets play an increasingly important role in client portfolios, robust operational infrastructure and governance are essential. Titanbay is well positioned to support this development responsibly. I am delighted to contribute my expertise to Titanbay's ambitious way forward.”
They are joined by Michael Gruener, Co-CEO of Titanbay, who brings more than 20 years of global asset management experience and deep relationships across Swiss private banks and wealth managers.
“Establishing a Swiss Advisory Board ensures we remain closely aligned with local market dynamics and client needs as demand for private market access grows.”
The Board is chaired by Timo Paul, Head of Switzerland at Titanbay. Based in Zurich, Timo brings senior leadership experience from Natixis Investment Managers, UBS Asset Management and Credit Suisse Asset Management and a deep understanding of what Swiss clients need from their private markets infrastructure partners.
What this means for our clients
This Advisory Board reinforces our long-term investment in Switzerland and underlines our focus on:
Supporting private banks and wealth managers as they scale private markets offerings
Delivering institutional-grade infrastructure with local relevance
Helping firms meet growing client demand with confidence and control
As private markets continue to move from “nice to have” to core portfolio allocation, Titanbay is focused on being the partner that makes that transition seamless.
We’re excited about what’s ahead and this is just the beginning.
