Agrisano Pencas
Agrisano Pencas was established by the Swiss Farmers' Union as a joint foundation to administer hybrid DB-DC and cash balance pensions for agricultural workers. Markus Hausammann chairs the board of trustees while Christian Kohli runs day-to-day operations from Brugg. The fund allocates across direct real estate, infrastructure, and fixed income. Confirmed holdings include the Agrisano Direct Real Estate Portfolio valued at approximately 274 million CHF, the Fontavis ESG Renewable Energy Infrastructure Fund Europe, and the SL Loan Fund focused on senior secured loans. Geographic exposure centers on Switzerland for property assets and extends to Europe and global markets through the infrastructure and credit sleeves. Total assets stand at 447 million USD. The firm maintains one known event participation in the last 24 months: attendance at the Swiss Life Investment Foundation Investor Assembly in Zurich in March 2024. It also operates the Agrisano Stiftung foundation and holds membership in the Schweizer Bauernverband. Investment decisions route through Swiss Life Asset Managers as primary advisor, with custody at UBS Switzerland AG and actuarial support from Dipeka AG. This external manager structure separates day-to-day portfolio construction from the pension board's oversight role.
