Sixt Leasing (Switzerland) AG executes full takeover of SXB Managed Mobility AG in Switzerland

  • Acquisition of remaining 50% of joint venture with Swisscom subsidiary Business Fleet Management AG
  • Further step in the internationalisation of the Fleet Management business segment

Pullach / Urdorf, 30 August 2016 - Sixt Leasing SE, one of the largest non-bank and manufacturer-independent full-service leasing companies in Germany, has acquired the remaining 50% interest in SXB Managed Mobility AG via its subsidiary Sixt Leasing (Schweiz) AG. SXB Managed Mobility, which has its headquarters in Urdorf (near Zurich) in Switzerland, is a fleet management specialist and was founded in April 2015 as an equal joint venture between Sixt Leasing (Schweiz) and Business Fleet Management AG, a 100% subsidiary of Swisscom. With the takeover, Sixt Leasing will be taking a further step in the internationalisation of its Fleet Management segment.

Following the acquisition, Swisscom will remain a customer of SXB Managed Mobility. The fleet specialist will thus continue to manage the Swiss telecommunications company's fleet of approx. 3,200 vehicles. SXB Managed Mobility acts as an expert contact point for all questions relating to fleet management and fleet optimisation. It supports both small and medium enterprises as well as major international corporate groups.

Rudolf Rizzoli, CEO of Sixt Leasing SE: "With the complete takeover of SBX Managed Mobility, we are driving forward internationalisation in the fleet management segment in a manner that conforms with our strategy and strengthening our corporate hold on the Swiss market. As a mobility partner, we will provide comprehensive support to our customers and advise them on optimising their fleet, such as in terms of saving costs, improving their processes and reducing CO2 emissions. I am pleased that we will continue to work closely with Swisscom."
