Claudia Eftimie joins DECALIA as Region Head for German-speaking Switzerland

DECALIA Asset Management has recruited Claudia Eftimie as Region Head for the development of its asset management business in German-speaking Switzerland. Claudia Eftimie has more than 17 years’ experience in buy-side analysis and institutional sales with several major Swiss asset managers.

After French-speaking Switzerland and Ticino, DECALIA is now tackling the Swiss-German market. The strategies developed by DECALIA focus on four promising long-term investment themes: disintermediation in the European banking sector, the search for yield, new consumption trends and market inefficiencies in Europe. These investment solutions, most of which are available in the UCITS format, also come in the form of mandates and alternative financing strategies.

Claudia Eftimie started her career in 1994 in financial analysis, first at Lombard Odier and then with Julius Baer. In 2004, she joined SYZ Asset Management, where she developed the OYSTER franchise in German-speaking Switzerland and German-speaking countries until 2011. After an entrepreneurial project between 2012 and 2014, she joined Bellevue Asset Management as Head of fund sales for distributors and major institutional clients. Having graduated in economics from the University of St. Gallen, Claudia Eftimie gained the CFA certification in 1998.
