VSM Sammelstiftung für Medizinalpersonen

VSM Sammelstiftung für Medizinalpersonen was established in 1971 to serve companies and organizations of physicians with collective pension arrangements. Its board is led by President Kerstin Windhövel. The foundation also maintains a sister vehicle, VSMplus Sammelstiftung für Personalvorsorge, focused on executive pensions. Investment activity centers on direct Swiss real estate holdings capped at five percent per property, a domestic mortgage portfolio, and limited-partner commitments to private equity and alternative strategies that include hedge funds, insurance-linked securities and infrastructure. Public equity and fixed-income exposure is implemented via mandates placed with UBS, Zürcher Kantonalbank and Zähringer Privatbank since 2017. Allocations remain concentrated in Switzerland with supplementary global reach. The foundation employs seven professionals at its Bern-Liebefeld headquarters and belongs to the Swiss Pension Fund Association (ASIP). External service providers include BDO as auditor and PensionTools as investment consultant. No material operational events have been recorded in the last 24 months. Governance is anchored in shared board membership with the Schweizerischer Verband Selbständiger Medizinalpersonen and historical ties to Sympany, creating a closed network that channels deal flow and oversight within the Swiss medical sector.
