PRESS RELEASE
JAR Capital Group Appoints Patrick Dorner as Independent Board Member in Geneva
Former long-standing CEO of the Swiss Association of Wealth Managers and former Chairman of AOOS supervisory organisation joins the Board of Directors of JAR Switzerland S.A.
Geneva, 24 June 2026
JAR Capital Group, a Swiss holding company bringing together independent wealth management firms, today announced the appointment of Mr Patrick Dorner to the Board of Directors of JAR Switzerland S.A.
Former CEO of the Swiss Association of Wealth Managers from 2009 until his departure from the Association, Patrick Dorner positioned the Association as one of the most influential voices in the Swiss financial centre. Throughout his tenure, he simultaneously served as former Chairman of the AOOS supervisory organisation, member of the committee of the Swiss Union of Liberal Professions, and delegate to the Swiss Union of Arts and Crafts, actively participating in numerous working groups dedicated to wealth management and financial regulation.
At the head of the Swiss Association of Wealth Managers for nearly two decades, he played a central role in structuring the institutional dialogue between the industry and the supervisory framework of the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority, notably in connection with the creation of the AOOS supervisory organisation under the Financial Institutions Act. Having stepped down from the leadership of the Swiss Association of Wealth Managers and from the chairmanship of AOOS, Patrick Dorner now brings his strategic expertise in advocacy and institutional dialogue to JAR Switzerland S.A. as an independent Board member — a key asset for any organisation operating in a constantly evolving regulatory environment.
Gérald de Senger, Founder and Chairman of JAR Capital Group, said:
“It was ten years ago, at the time of our affiliation, that I was able to appreciate Patrick Dorner’s rigour and integrity. Seeing him join our Board of Directors today strengthens our commitment to making governance a true pillar of our future development.”
As JAR Capital Group enters its second decade, this appointment reflects a clear ambition: to make governance a competitive advantage by relying on profiles capable of anticipating regulatory
requirements and industry developments.
Nicolas de Senger, CEO and Equity Partner of JAR Switzerland S.A., added:
“We have built a demanding management team. Patrick Dorner’s arrival on the Board of Directors creates a natural bridge between the Board’s strategic vision and day-to-day execution, a decisive asset in supporting our growth according to the highest regulatory standards.”
