Our investment process
A systematic and disciplined investment process is the basis for high value creation. That's why we adhere to our proven governance structures for illiquid assets. We work with industry experts to screen and source possible investments. We only invest in a company after detailed internal and external due diligence – often alongside other well-known private equity companies.
Focus on growth
Thanks to its corporate venture initiative Start-up Finance and venture capital platform investiere.ch, Zürcher Kantonalbank is close to the market and has already financed more than 250 start-ups with risk capital of more than CHF 180 million. With the Private Equity Growth Fund, you invest in innovative companies that have outgrown the start-up/venture capital phase.
Who are our private equity funds suitable for?
Our private equity funds are subject to the oversight of the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) and are aimed exclusively at professional and institutional investors.
