Partners Group plans to make a number of changes to its executive management and board of directors in line with increased scale in its global investment, client and corporate activities.

At its annual general meeting on 2 May, the group will propose that its chief executive Steffen Meister joins the board as an executive member.

In this role, he will chair Partners' business development committee as well as becoming a member of two strategy and markets committees which direct major strategic firm initiatives and client-related initiatives, respectively.

"It was a significant privilege and a highly fascinating experience to be the team captain of the executive board and at the helm of the broader management team for eight years, during which we saw a substantial development of the firm across all regions, teams and businesses," Meister said.

As a result of Meister's role change, the board has announced the appointments of Christoph Rubeli and André Frei — both partners with the group — as co-chief executive officers as of 1 July.

It is also planned that Partners' client services business department will be co-led by Reto Schwager and Raphael Meier from 1 July and that Schwager will join the executive board in his new role.

Also expected to join the board from July is Partners general counsel and partner Andrea Knecht.
