Summary
Baloise Asset Management Ltd has been renamed Helvetia Asset Management Ltd (HAM) and now operates under the Helvetia Group brand, marking another major step in the integration of the Helvetia Baloise Group following the merger of its two asset management companies in July 2026. With over CHF 100 billion in assets under management, the division is one of Switzerland’s largest insurance asset managers and ranks among the country’s top five real estate investment managers, managing or advising approximately CHF 20 billion in real estate assets. The unified market presence brings together the extensive experience and complementary strengths of both organisations, according to Group Chief Investment Officer André Keller, enabling a broader range of investment solutions for clients.
HAM offers pension funds, insurance companies and other institutional investors access to multi-asset strategies, real estate, mortgages and private markets, drawing on more than 160 years of insurance asset management experience. The division covers the entire real estate value chain—from development and construction to property management and portfolio management—complemented by mortgage investment solutions. Private clients also benefit from the group-wide collaboration between insurance, banking and asset management in pensions and assets to support individual retirement planning. As part of the move to a unified market presence, numerous investment funds have also been renamed, with more information available via the https://www.helvetia-asset-management.com/ link and further details at www.helvetia-asset-management.com.
The rebranding establishes a unified market presence for the Helvetia Baloise Group’s Asset Management division, which manages the investment portfolios of the group and institutional clients. The release also notes that past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results and that investments carry risk. The original release can be viewed on www.newmediawire.com.
