Our insights

As a family-owned business, Wealtheon has been rooted in over two generations of expertise in the field of asset management.

Our focus remains steadfast on maintaining a legacy of trust and integrity, ensuring that we consistently meet and surpass our clients' expectations in every aspect of our service.

Founded in 1971 as General Investment Management by Peter S. Zwart, Wealtheon Asset Management has been at the forefront of investment excellence for over five decades.

Under the leadership of Victor Zwart, we expanded our footprint in 2005, establishing Wealtheon NV in Geneva.

This marked the beginning of our international growth, which saw further expansion into Belgium and the Netherlands in 2008.

Our commitment to strategic growth and client-focused services was exemplified in 2020 when we joined forces with Naard Broeckaert's Torrebos Consult, significantly increasing our assets under management to €600 million.

In 2023, our journey of expansion and excellence continued with the opening of our fourth office in Waregem.

As we continue to grow, our commitment to your financial aspirations remains our utmost priority. We invite you to connect with us and discover how Wealtheon's tailored solutions can align with your unique financial needs.

Exciting day at Exor N.V.'s 2023 Investor Day in Turin, Italy! Naard Broeckaert, partner, attended this invitation-only event hosted by Exor’s CEO, John Elkann, and their leadership team.

We have traditionally focused heavily on the United States. After a strong first half of the year, we slightly reduced our exposure there in favor of Europe. We remain cautious of Asia." says Victor Zwart, CEO and head of the growth strategy.

Victor Zwart explains, "for the growth strategy, we reduced our exposure to the American market by taking profits. Traditionally, we have been overweight in the United States. Our stocks have undergone a significant rally, led by technology as a major driver and key component. We have taken some profits in that area and scaled back our position.”

Conversely, our exposure to Europe was increased primarily because European stocks are trading at a much lower valuation. "Economic growth expectations for the next year were also higher in Europe, whereas in the United States, growth was expected to taper off. However, the United States is home to several dominant innovative technology companies.

Naard Broeckaert, Partner and head of the value strategy, states that the focus is on certain sectors that didn't perform as well in the first semester, despite being strong performers the previous year. As a result, "we believe we were able to acquire shares at very attractive valuations," explains Naard Broeckaert.

"Within our value strategy, our asset allocation has seen little change. It's important to realize that we invest in real companies where management and employees work to create value. Therefore, we consider not only stock price increases but also value creation," emphasizes Naard Broeckaert.
