Who we are
Keystone Capital is a stock company with principal offices in Freienbach. Both of its partners benefit from years of experience in the area of corporate financing. In addition to their personal friendship, the entrepreneurial duo is profoundly marked by a mover-and-shaker mentality combined with a networking approach. The ability to form communities of distinctly different profiles but bound by common interests and to drive entrepreneurs and investors alike to a common goal is what they do best.
This explains in part how Thomas Reusser and Simon Kurz – among the youngest players in the Swiss private equity sector – have already built a network of more than 400 investors with considerable buying power.
How we work
Naturally, we are delighted when introduced to promising projects at an early stage. This happens more and more often due to our growing network. But our principle is clear: we do not wait for opportunities, we develop them. To keep our eyes and ears open is a proactive attitude of ours. We follow the most recent technological advances and operate actively in those start-up communities. We seek to identify growth markets as early adaptors before the public at large. When they are found through our research, we often assume the active role of intermediary between goal-oriented (young) entrepreneurs and investors with foresight. We do not require any exorbitant remuneration for our work: instead, our fees are transparent and based on a fair percentage. Our most important payback is your confidence, the key to a long-lasting and successful business relationship.

Our philosophy
Today’s investment capital in the area of private equity amounts to USD 1700 billion worldwide. The temptation for intermediaries in this gigantic market is to offer as many financing projects as possible in order to secure as big as possible a piece of the pie. In contrast, we intentionally limit ourselves to two or three projects a year, carefully selected by us. Our responsibility is directed equally to those looking for funding and those investing in projects. We find it important to accompany the entire funding process with a focused and responsive approach. The result? Investors do not waste time seeking to gather information, and entrepreneurs are able to concentrate on implementing their business plans. We do not consider it important for capital to change hands as often as possible. Instead, we strive to see outstanding entrepreneurial ideas implemented effectively and for a profit. If in doubt, we prefer a more secure return to speculation with greater risk.
