SAM Excel, an external asset management company based in Zurich, has joined the global financial services network Union Capital Group (UCAP). As part of this move, the company has rebranded itself as “UCAP Wealth Management Switzerland” and appointed Peter Albinsson as the new CEO. Albinsson, a private banking expert, previously held senior positions at NPB Neue Privat Bank, EFG International, Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank, and Falcon Private Bank. The company, which is connected to EFG International founders Mats Phersson and Lonnie Howell, aims to expand its team and attract equity partners and relationship managers. The UCAP network manages over $50 billion in client assets and has offices in Zurich, Geneva, London, Bahamas, Miami, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Dubai. This move is part of the ongoing consolidation trend among Swiss asset managers, driven by stricter regulations and the new Finma licensing requirements implemented in 2023.
