Now in its eighth year, Zurich once again becomes the focal point for the independent wealth management community across German-speaking Switzerland.

The sector is navigating a period of significant transformation. Industry consolidation, the evolution of the multi-family office model, increasing specialisation, the decline of the traditional 60/40 portfolio, long-term outlooks towards 2040, talent acquisition, artificial intelligence, and enhanced risk management are all reshaping the landscape. These developments demand careful consideration and well-informed strategic decisions.

For the 2026 edition, SPHERE brings together leading industry professionals for ten dedicated sessions, created with and for independent wealth managers. Hosted in Zurich in partnership with finews, the event will once again unite the entire German-speaking Swiss wealth management community.

Sascha Steinmann was attending the panel talking about value creating and implementation in EAM structures.
