independent financial advice

Financial advice you can understand and own.

For people in Switzerland who want a solid financial plan that is built with them, not sold to them.

what makes me different

4 commitments.

  1. education to empower

    Not advice to follow blindly, but reasoning to understand & own each decision.

  2. discipline over prediction

    I do not forecast markets. I follow rules and evidence instead.

  3. radical independence

    Paid by you alone. No commissions and no incentives from anything I recommend

  4. you stay in control

    Your money stays in your accounts. I never manage or hold it.

what do I actually do?

a plan you understand, own, and can act on.

  • investment portfolio

    Built around your objectives and the risk that suits you. Simple to explain.

  • pillars 2 and 3

    A strategy matched to your objectives, coordinated with your portfolio.

  • cost and tax efficiency

    Low-cost vehicles and brokers, and less lost to tax — it compounds over decades.

  • specific objective

    Planning around one goal if you want — retiring earlier, buying a home.

what I do not do

I do not manage your assets.

You stay in control. I do not hold your money nor trade on your behalf.
