Dynamics Group: Marianne Fassbind becomes partner
Following the departure of Kaspar Loeb, the Dynamics Group is gaining a new member: On November 1, 2016, Marianne Fassbind will take up her position at the Zurich location.
Her core areas will be strategic communications consulting, especially for pension funds, as well as capital market communications and media consulting. Marianne Fassbind has many years of experience and a unique network in these areas.
Initially as a financial analyst and later as a print and television editor, she analyzed and commented on events in the Swiss economy for over 25 years.

As a member of investment committees and as a trustee of pension funds, the pension market is also one of her core competencies. As former head of finance of the city of Rapperswil, she is also familiar with the specifics of politics and administration.
Marianne Fassbind has been a member of the Board of Directors of Bergbahnen Engelberg Titlis since 1994, and has been Chairman of the Audit Committee and the Nomination Committee since 2011. From 2000 to 2004, she was a city councilor (executive) of Rapperswil as well as a member of the merger project between Rapperswil and Jona.
