For a time they set the pace in the financial center of Zurich: Jan Schoch and Roger Studer. As drivers of the two main structural and derivative platforms, they belonged to the big boys.
Now they have exchanged power and money, for freedom and entrepreneurship. One became an owner, the other a private financier.
What remains is the desire to get into the media. Both Schoch with his gastro house and Studer with his family office seek proximity to the press.
They had to give up power. They want the glamor to continue.
Schoch is excited about his “bear” in Gonten. “The Perfect Weekend at Jan Schoch’s Hotel” was the Finews headline recently. The former banker “often goes barefoot” was relaxed.
Last Sunday was a day of prayer, the sun was shining, the guests stormed the Schoch bears in the picturesque mountain region of Appenzell.
“We wait, we wait and we wait,” says one of the guests. “Then we left again. I was very understaffed. “
Who will not become a host? Obviously, business is not child’s play. It’s just going full throttle, Schoch said when asked, not everything goes like clockwork.
“I am currently working on further expansion of the restaurant and offering seminars. The company has a utilization capacity of more than 80% and sometimes we lack service personnel. “
“This month, despite Corona, we will exceed last year’s total sales. Needless to say, I will stick with such a successful company. “
Schoch is clearly enjoying his new adventure. Despite the decline at Leonteq and a failed foray into the fintech scene, it still had the little change it needed.
Roger Studer also draws attention to himself with an appearance on Finews. The former Vontobel banker is “going shopping with the Family Office,” the financial media reports today.
At Studer, unlike Schoch, it is still the world of money that attracts him. But the Zurich-born entrepreneur has also recently become entrepreneurs and, like Schoch, he also uses the media amplifier for himself and for his project.
“Studer Family Office AG manages and invests the assets of the Studer family and their dear friends,” the former Vontobel star writes on the home page of her new company.
“We insure our assets in a comprehensive and profitable manner for our future generations. We are independent in spirit and action and with our work we promote a positive impact on society and the environment. “
Instead of Ferrari and party, now sustainability and society. The purified.
Or maybe not. Studer invested in Bitcoin Suisse, a leading blockchain and crypto address in Zug. For Studer it is clear: cryptocurrencies and blockchain are the future.
From Schoch to Alp, from Studer to Silicon Valley: the old flagship kids are turning their backs on classic Zurich banking. Out of necessity, conviction, hyperopia? Time will tell.
