Following by GiF, the first NOT sales-driven Alternative & Hedge Fund platforms advising and supporting Pension Funds (2002), developing in parallel to Lyxor the first Core-Satellite Strategies by combining ETFs with GiF (2002-03). During his stay in St.Petersburg (RUS), he developed GRiP, the first global fund platform in Russia (2013). Most  recently the bond marketing platform www.LiLiBonds.com and its sub-service platform www.GreenieBonds.ch which is the first global platform for sustainable bonds and Greenbonds with 950 listed products (2016/17).

Much more important for the 0% yield capital markets : he created the idea of TIM : The INCOME Masterclass and led its R.I.I.S.P path of development. TIM is a (ultra-)conservative investment strategy platform but smart and sharp, which redefined the INCOME asset class for the safety focused investor and the risk averse portfolio manager.
