Abegg & Co

Abegg & Co

Abegg & Co was founded in Zurich in 1955 to unify the management of the Bodmer family's assets. Chairman Henry Christopher Bodmer represents the fourth generation at the helm, while President of the Board Annina Claudia Müller-Bodmer anchors the ownership lineage. The family office's work is rooted in long-horizon stewardship rather than near-term liquidity events, consistent with its seven decades of operation from Utoquai 55. The firm deploys capital across private equity, real estate, and public markets. Its private equity program spans buyout, growth, and special situations, executed through direct co-investments, secondary transactions, and primary fund commitments. Abegg & Co maintains exposure to technology-driven sectors including AI/ML, enterprise software, advanced materials, biotech, and ESG-themed assets. Geographic reach covers Europe, North America, Asia, and South America, reflecting a portfolio built across developed and emerging markets. Team size is not publicly disclosed, but the firm's footprint includes proprietary real assets — notably the commercial property at Utoquai 55, the mixed-use UHAG Building in Zurich, and the Cosa Mirai Real Estate Portfolio spanning Europe and North America. Adjacent holdings include the Swiss manufacturing entity 3D AG and travel company Cosa Travel Ltd. The family also supports the Abegg-Stiftung foundation in Riggisberg, separating philanthropic capital from commercial deployment. This constellation of investment entities under one roof creates an informal deal-sharing architecture that blends single-family-office discretion with the sourcing breadth of external managers.
