ICMA's FLC provides him with a great platform to build his broader network within capital markets and exchange his views and ideas. Working for a buy-side institution, he hopes to bring new perspectives into the FLC. As one of the two Swiss representatives, he also aims at facilitating an exchange with the younger generation of the Swiss financial market community, promoting ICMA's efforts in regards to the well-functioning of international capital markets.
