Twelve Capital, the Zurich-based investment manager focussed on catastrophe bond and insurance linked securities (ILS), has shuffled its board of directors following the acquisition of a minority stake (around 30 percent) by Graubündner Kantonalbank (GKB) in June 2022.
At the holding company level, the board is now composed of Urs Ramseier (executive chairman), Christoph Bürer (executive vice chairman) and Martina MüllerKamp (member).

Clemetson has extensive expertise in investment management and finance law. She is a partner at Schellenberg Wittmer AG, Attorneys at Law and a member of the firm's Executive Committee. Previously, she was head of investment products and distribution at the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA).
Knörzer has many years of experience in the field of sustainable asset management and ESG. He is the managing owner of Knörzer Consulting, a company specialising in sustainability consulting for finance and business. Before founding his company, he held senior positions in asset management at banks with a focus on portfolio management and sustainability analysis.
