Annelis Lüscher Hämmerli, Group Chief Financial Officer (CFO) at Helvetia, will step down as a member of the Group Executive Board the latest as of April 2026 at her own request to focus on her existing and new mandates outside Helvetia. Annelis Lüscher joined Helvetia in 2020 and has achieved significant successes during her tenure. Fabian Rupprecht, CEO Helvetia Group, says: "Under the leadership of Annelis Lüscher Hämmerli, the Group's financial management was strengthened, maintaining a strong financial position.
