Stoneweg has acquired a majority stake in Fundim, a real estate fund manager active across French-speaking Switzerland that specialises in collective investment vehicles focused on sustainable residential developments. This partnership is underpinned by strong synergies between the two companies’ operations and teams. Completion of the transaction remains subject to certain conditions, including FINMA approval.
Stoneweg said the transaction’s objective is twofold: to grow Fundim’s existing strategies and extend them into German-speaking Switzerland, leveraging the complementary expertise of both companies’ teams. For Stoneweg, this acquisition strengthens the firm’s activities within the domestic Swiss market, where the Geneva-based group sees significant potential across multiple sectors, the company added.
Fundim’s co-founders, Anthony Collé and Olivier Klunge, along with their operational management team led by Daniel Moser, will continue to lead and develop the company in partnership with Stoneweg. Anthony Collé will remain chairman of the board.
Jaume Sabater, founding partner and CEO of Stoneweg, said: “This acquisition presents a fantastic opportunity to bring into our group a team of highly skilled professionals with deep expertise and a strong local institutional network. This is a natural extension of strategies we have successfully implemented in other countries, such as Spain and the US, and we are excited to continue the growth and development of the investment vehicles launched by Fundim.”
Collé added: “This transaction allows our team to benefit from the support, experience and capabilities of the Stoneweg group. Our goal is to maintain the high level of service for our clients while expanding our activities into German-speaking Switzerland. I know Jaume well, and the cultural alignment between our two companies will ensure a seamless and productive collaboration in the years ahead.”
Fundim will continue to operate under its own brand and current management while closely collaborating with Stoneweg’s teams.
