Our business areas
With more than 90 employees and assets under management north of EUR 35 billion, Swiss Life Asset Managers in Luxembourg is one of the country’s biggest asset managers. We are a local centre of excellence in fund set-up and fund management. Swiss Life Asset Managers in Luxembourg holds a dual licence as an UCITS management company and an AIFM and is supervised by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF). As a result, Swiss Life Asset Managers manages both UCITS and AIF products, pursuing real estate, infrastructure and debt equity strategies in corporate and contractual form.
Our modern offices are located on the Kirchberg Plateau, at the heart of the banking and financial district. This location has outstanding rail links to central Luxembourg.
Fund Management is responsible for the regulatory aspects of portfolio management within the real estate and infrastructure funds domiciled in Luxembourg. It handles end-to-end life-cycle management and is in contact with internal and external stakeholders alike. In addition, it performs portfolio analysis and optimisation, financial modelling and evaluations. This area also monitors asset managers and handles day-to-day portfolio management activities, including liquidity and credit management.
Risk Management monitors and supervises the super management company (AIFM and UCITS). This encompasses evaluating, monitoring and reporting on all the risks linked to the funds managed and the development of the risk culture within the organisation. Our Compliance team appraises compliance-specific risks, such as supervisory sanctions, financial losses and reputational losses due to non-compliance with statutory and supervisory law requirements, as well as internal Group directives. In this respect, the Compliance team functions as an independent, second-level monitoring body.
Where everything counts. Our accounting team ensures that the prices of our alternative investment funds are calculated correctly and at the appropriate time. It oversees central administrators, SPV accountants, auditors and other external service providers. Furthermore, this department checks the funds’ consolidated NAV calculations and gives NAV approval to service providers. Last but not least, Accounting monitors closing deadlines and ensures smooth, timely annual and quarterly accounts.
Investor Relations processes new investors, coordinating and handling all the aspects linked to opening an account. In addition, this department responds to all investors’ enquiries and functions as the primary port of call for sales and distribution across Europe.
Our Legal department advises internal stakeholders on an array of legal, supervisory, contractual and corporate law matters in conjunction with the management company’s asset management activities. Besides this, it bears primary responsibility for the establishment and maintenance of funds – from set-up to liquidation. Other areas of responsibility include submitting the relevant documents to Luxembourg’s supervisory authorities, drafting and negotiating fund documentation, handling fund service and sales agreement and administering collateral agreements. Its remit also includes reviewing and approving marketing documents.
Corporate Services is in charge of ongoing fund management and the management of the funds’ subsidiaries (both national and international). This department ensures that documentation is compliant with Luxembourg law. In addition, Corporate Services works closely with notaries, authorities, service providers, the board of directors and internal stakeholders.
