Matrixport Appoints Dominik Oggenfuss as CEO of Asset Management AG

In a significant move aimed at accelerating growth within the digital assets sector, Matrixport Group has officially announced the appointment of Dominik Oggenfuss as the new Chief Executive Officer of Matrixport Asset Management AG, effective December 10, 2025. This strategic decision comes as Matrixport continues to enhance its investment capabilities and solidify its presence in key European markets.

Experience and Vision for Growth

Dominik Oggenfuss, who previously served as a partner at Welsbach Holdings, brings with him a wealth of experience spanning over 25 years in strategic advisory, venture capital, and alternative investments. His impressive credentials are complemented by executive training from the prestigious Harvard Business School, making him a strong fit for navigating the complexities of both traditional and digital finance.

His appointment marks a pivotal moment for Matrixport, which has positioned itself as a leader in the burgeoning digital asset space. Oggenfuss expresses his enthusiasm about joining the team, stating, “I am honored to join Matrixport Asset Management AG as CEO and I look forward to leveraging our infrastructure to provide innovative investment solutions and strengthen client relationships across both traditional and digital markets.”

John Ge, CEO of Matrixport Group, also commented on this appointment, emphasizing the company's focus on scaling its institution-grade business throughout Europe. This reflects a deliberate strategy to enhance investment capabilities and build a sustainable presence in key markets.

Strengthening the Leadership Team

Accompanying this leadership change are additional appointments aimed at bolstering the company's operations. Friedrich Herzog has been named Chief Investment Officer. Previously, he served as the Head of Research and Senior Portfolio Manager at the organization and possesses over a decade of experience managing extensive asset portfolios across various categories, including a solid background at renowned firms such as Goldman Sachs.

Moreover, Hui Wang will now hold the title of Chief Operating Officer while continuing her work as Chief Compliance Officer. She has been with Matrixport since 2019 and brings valuable experience in operational leadership and compliance from her prior tenure at financial institutions including UBS and Credit Suisse.

Expanding Horizons in Europe

Matrixport's move to appoint Oggenfuss also correlates with its recent strategic milestone—the acquisition of Crypto Finance (Asset Management) AG, which allowed it to make strong inroads into the European crypto asset management market. This acquisition, completed in 2024, was decisive in integrating licensed operations into Matrixport, enhancing its institutional capabilities under the stringent regulatory frameworks of Switzerland and beyond.

As a FINMA-authorized Manager of Collective Investment, Matrixport Asset Management AG is positioned to offer a comprehensive range of regulated financial products, bridging the gap between traditional finance and digital assets. This includes structured products, discretionary asset management, and various funds, aiming to deliver robust and compliant solutions for clients.
