Anthony Chaillet
Managing Partner
I spent over 20 years at the heart of the global insurance industry - most recently as Global Head of Reinsurance Strategy and Chief of Staff to the CEO of Reinsurance at Swiss Re - advising on large M&A transactions, IPOs, minority acquisitions, and strategic partnerships.
What I kept seeing were the same gaps: between capital and opportunity, between innovation and scale, between ambition and execution. I founded Rift Partners to bridge them.

Dr. Mario Wilhelm
Managing Partner
I've spent over 20 years at the intersection of banking, re/insurance, and development finance - most recently leading global emerging consumer and regional public sector business development at Swiss Re Group, with hands-on experience across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
My work has always lived at the meeting point of public and private - mobilising capital where it's needed most. I co-founded Rift Partners to bring that purpose together with entrepreneurial instinct: as a business angel, I know what it takes to back bold ideas and turn them into impact.
