Founder-led, with direct access to the people who decide.

Watson AM AG is a Swiss Aktiengesellschaft, registered in Basel under UID CHE-368.490.535 and founded in October 2024 by its Danish and Swiss founding partners. The firm pairs Swiss precision with Nordic directness, and keeps a direct line open to the founders and the team, on any deal.

Numbers before narrative.

Named after the steady analyst.

Watson AM takes its name from Dr John H. Watson, Sherlock Holmes' companion: the steady analyst, the voice of reason, the partner who grounds bold ideas in practical insight. Holmes gets the headlines. Watson writes the case down, gets the details right, and lets the work speak.

That is the standard the firm works to: reason in the analysis, loyalty through the life of the deal. Just as Watson is Sherlock’s trusted partner in his detective cases, Watson AM is the trusted partner in your financial case.

Meet the Watsons.

Two founders who structure the financing and share it with investors, and two partners who bring the market and the network behind them. Between us we read, assess and present every real estate project that reaches Watson AM.

Anders T. Aldenfeld

CIO · Managing Partner

Anders has worked across asset management, real estate and technology. He co-founded and ran Introdus in Denmark, and was named a Berlingske Top 100 Talent in 2021. At Watson AM he leads the structuring of each financing and the assessment of its credit risk: he examines the leverage, the valuation, the security offered and the repayment strategy, weighs the risks in carrying out the project, and judges how well a file fits the criteria of the investors it could go to.

Søren F. Fantini

He leads origination at Watson AM and makes the first assessment of each financing opportunity.

Nathan Dimanche

CMO · Partner

Nathan holds degrees in economics, business management and marketing, and has spent his whole career in marketing, which he treats as something that touches every part of a business. He is responsible for the brand, marketing and communication of Watson AM and of Watson Capital Partners. That covers how each presents itself and to whom: the two websites, the Casebook, the firm's presence on LinkedIn, the material that borrowers and investors receive, and the Watson Society, its relationships with the brands investors admire.

Michael Hørup

Adviser · Partner

Michael is a senior commercial leader with more than 20 years in global roles. He has run consumer businesses worth over USD 1bn and built market positions across Europe, the GCC and Africa, work that depends on entering a market and earning the trust of the people already in it.
