Salus Partners

Salus Partners

Salus Partners SA received its Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) license as a wealth manager in 2011, establishing its primary base in Lausanne. It later added a Zürich office. The firm operates under ongoing supervision by AOOS, a Swiss supervisory organization, and structures its offering around three mandates: wealth optimization for individuals and families, investment management for portfolio creation and administration, and direct healthcare investments. Its healthcare focus targets proven medical innovations addressing global markets — a sector concentration that shapes its identity more than a diversified multi-asset approach would. The firm applies a combined buyout, early-stage, and venture strategy across its healthcare and financial services domains. Deal stages span seed, start-up, expansion, and late-stage opportunities. Salus undertakes direct co-investment and general venture and buyout mandates. The investment team works as a unified group, pooling expertise across asset classes rather than operating in siloed verticals. Geographic deployment concentrates on Switzerland, reflecting the firm's regulatory charter and client base, yet its healthcare mandate is described as targeting global markets. Team size and total deployment figures are not publicly disclosed. Salus Partners maintains offices in Lausanne and Zürich. The firm is structured as a Swiss société anonyme (SA), operating independently and emphasizing discretion, long-term trust, and the management of conflicts of interest. Its client base consists of individuals and families. No adjacent philanthropic vehicles, club memberships, or operating businesses tied to the principals have been publicly identified. Salus Partners differentiates by combining a regulated Swiss wealth-management structure with a specialist healthcare innovation investment practice — an architecture more commonly seen in hybrid family offices than in generalist asset managers. The firm is built to serve as a unified platform where a single team can manage liquid portfolios and direct private investments, with internal compliance governed by Swiss FINMA standards, rather than separating the two functions into distinct legal entities.
