Syz Capital was launched in 2018 as the private markets investment unit of Syz Group.

The firm will now merge the Asset Management Alternatives team and the Private Banking Global Investment Solutions team.

The merger will bring together liquid alternative offering and hedge fund solutions with CHF1bn in assets.

The discretionary and advisory alternative account teams led by the head of Global Investment Solutions Sherban Taututhat will join SYZ Capital.

The teams were earlier part of SYZ Private Banking.

SYZ Capital will also incorporate Cédric Vuignier, who is in charge of alternative research and investments at SYZ Asset Management, and his team.

The team will retain the management of the OYSTER Alternative Uncorrelated fund and the OYSTER Alternative Multi Strategy fund along with a white label UCITS Alternative offering.

SYZ Capital CEO Marc Syz said: “Merging our liquid and illiquid offerings will enable our clients to access and benefit from a range of attractive investment solutions alongside our family.

“Alternatives will help investors navigate this difficult market environment, while uncovering uncorrelated sources of consistent alpha.

“Liquid alternatives, such as hedge funds, are recognised for their reduced correlation to traditional asset classes, which allow them to generate attractive returns across market cycles with low levels of volatility.”
