About Me
My name is Ian Shirley, I am a UK & CH national and have lived and worked in Switzerland for more than 30 years.
​
During the covid-19 pandemic I was made redundant after more than 20 years in the insurance industry. True to the motto "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade", I founded investian to offer financial services based around the Swiss pension system.
​
Based on my experience as an expat living in Switzerland, my expertise in the insurance/assistance industry and more than 20 years of successful investing, I provide a unique outside-in, customer-oriented skillset to help you reach your financial goals.
