The GAM Swiss asset has appointed Alberto Soport its new group director as part of a major overhaul.
On July 1, 2025, Saporta will assume a new role.
It replaces Elmar Zumbuel, which continues with the company until December 31, 2025 to ensure the transition.
Over the last 21 months, under the guidance of Elmar Zumbuehl, Gam has got rid of non -core enterprises and created a “slim, scale” platform. This transformation was aimed at attracting investment talents and enhancing global customer distribution and service.
Saporta, which has more than four decades in investment management and acts as a global investment manager and products in GAM from October 2023, will focus on accelerating growth using existing and new food offers and studying external opportunities.
According to Gam, Saporta is of the main importance in strengthening the GAM investment group and establishing new partnerships with leading investment managers, enhancing the company’s ability to offer customers investment strategies in different asset classes.
Soport said: “I am honored to take on the role of GAM CEO. We have turned GAM, and now it is well placed with unique investment talents for giving differentiated strategies for our customers. I am glad that I headed the GAM as a sustainable growth.”
In addition, Tim Reinsford should return to the group’s main distributor, starting on October 1, 2025.
Tim Reinsford, returning to Gam, brings experience of its previous roles, including Generali Investments Partners and Product Council officer and distribution for Generali Asset Management.
It will become part of the group management council and closely cooperates with Rosen Djunov, the head of the world’s customers. Junns will still be a vital part of the distribution management, focusing on growth initiatives and “strategic” relationships with customers.
Chairman of the Gam Holding Council Antoine Spilman said: “On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to express a deep gratitude to the Elmara for the specialized service and the significant achievements he has achieved in many years. His leadership was the main thing in managing the company through transformation changes and establishing a solid foundation for the future.
