Bigger is Not Always Better: SMI vs OMSP1

Don’t Be Fooled by the SMI: The Real Swiss Index

A common misconception is that indices like the SMI and SPI accurately reflect the Swiss economy. However, these indices are heavily weighted towards the pharmaceutical sector and Nestlé. In contrast, the Obermatt Swiss Pearls Index (OMSP1) offers a more comprehensive representation of Switzerland’s diverse economic sectors.

It encompasses a wider range of industries and minimizes sector-specific biases. This makes the OMSP1 a more authentic gauge of Swiss economic health, offering investors a more balanced and genuinely Swiss investment opportunity.

The visual demonstrates that the Swiss Pearls Index provides a more balanced sector allocation and more accurately reflects the actual structure of the Swiss economy, unlike the SMI and SPI which heavily weight specific sectors like Pharma and Financials.

Beyond Large Caps: OMSP1’s Diversified Approach

The OMSP1 achieves a well-rounded balance across all company size classes, from Small companies all the way up to the largest firms. Unlike the SMI, which concentrates most of its weight in a handful of giants, the OMSP1 spreads exposure across the full breadth of the market.

This strategy broadens the investment scope, making the OMSP1 a more robust and versatile index for representing the Swiss economy.

Burkhalter: The OMSP1’s New Main Fuse

25 Jun 2026

Burkhalter is joining the OMSP1 for the first time this month, replacing dormakaba. The company is Switzerland’s largest electrical engineering and building technology group, with 83 subsidiaries across 169 locations. It is not a high-growth story. It is a compounding story, built on decades of small acquisitions, a near-zero debt balance sheet, and structural demand from Switzerland’s energy transition. The Safety Rank of 98 is one of the highest in the index. Meanwhile, dormakaba’s transformation is real but the numbers have not caught up yet.

Inficon: At Work While Others Panicked

28 May 2026

Inficon is back in the OMSP1 this month, replacing SGS. When the Swiss instrumentation company first joined the index in January 2025, everything looked great. Then tariffs hit, margins fell, and the stock dropped more than 40%. What happened next is the interesting part: management made a series of decisions that hurt short-term numbers but kept the company’s competitive position intact. A year and a half later, the ranks tell the story. Inficon’s Obermatt 360° View has climbed from 82 to 90, its Growth Rank has more than doubled, and the semiconductor upcycle is just getting started. Read the full story on the blog.

Sulzer Back in the OMSP1 and Pumping the Energy Transition

30 Apr 2026

Most investors have never heard of Sulzer. That might be exactly why it belongs in the Obermatt Swiss Pearls Index. This month, the Winterthur-based industrial giant joins as Lindt & Sprüngli exits. A global leader in fluid engineering since 1834, Sulzer’s pumps, separation systems, and carbon capture technology sit at the heart of the energy transition and global water infrastructure. After being removed from the index in September 2025, three years of consistent margin expansion have brought its Obermatt 360° View back up to 88, driven by a record EBITDA margin of 15.6% in 2025 and a management team that keeps raising the bar.
