In his new role, Mr. Dänzer will become a member of the Pension Fund Management and is responsible for the entire investment area.
A Swiss-certified financial analyst and asset manager / CIAA, Andreas Dänzer has held a variety of senior positions in the financial and investment sector.

In more than 20 years at the Pension Fund, he has significantly influenced the Pension Fund’s investment orientation and, with his great expertise, has contributed to position the Pension Fund successfully and in a future-oriented manner, particularly in numerous difficult investment years. We would like to thank Guido Bächli for his dedication and welcome Andreas Dänzer to the Pension Fund Management.
