Whoever buys shares buys management.
As a boutique fund, we support sophisticated investors and entrepreneurs with a deep understanding of the market and a clear focus on Swiss small and mid-caps.
We invest in companies with Entrepreneurial DNA, the Growth, margin strength and Capital discipline unite.
We invest selectively — with close access to management teams, a focus on small and mid-caps, and a clear focus on results.
Clarity over complexity. Substance before buzzwords. Partnership before transactions.
We think entrepreneurially, not index-driven.
Our goal: a 10% annual return over the cycle — without benchmark constraints.
The PLUTOS Switzerland Fund - active, focused, independent. Selective Swiss stocks with entrepreneurial DNA.
All caps with a focus on small/mid caps.
No index replication: Benchmark-free, focused, long-term.
Key criteria: Growth · Margins · Market position · Management · Capital allocation.
I invest the way I talk to entrepreneurs: clear, direct, long-term.
35+ years of market experience with a Swiss focus and passion for companies with character.
What sets us apart:
Proximity to management: >100 interviews per year at C-level in Switzerland
Targeted selection: Quality, growth, margins, capital discipline
Active management: Focus on the best ideas instead of breadth
Authentic communication: without filter, with content instead of staging, substance instead of buzzwords
For entrepreneurs, family offices, qualified investors and decision-makers, who value active dialogue and our transparency with a view to substance and who seek sparring on an equal footing.
And think, plan, and invest with discipline for the long term, recognize short-term volatility as an opportunity, be able and willing to invest countercyclically, and assess results absolutely, not relatively.
Space: resilient network in Swiss C‑Suites
Craft: Bottom-up selection, focus, positional discipline
Transparency: clear, rational, easily explainable investment case for each fund investment
Independence: No benchmark, no conflicts of interest, no politics
Sola Capital combines capital with entrepreneurial thinking. We invest selectively in Swiss companies and maintain close, direct contact with their management.
Our promise:
Clarity in analysis
Consistency in implementation
Commitment in dialogue
No mass product, no index cosmetics, no storytellers without substance.
