“I had the privilege to grow up in a family that fostered an active discussion culture and in which moral concepts were – and still are – an expression of personal conviction. My parents raised me to scrutinize what is taken for granted. Philosophical, political, ethical or religious beliefs were never predefined. We cultivated a humanistic ideal of family and education. From the cradle, I was made aware of the importance of education: True to the motto “Fame, money and title can be taken away, but never what is in your head”. This mindset was also present at the international boarding school Schloss Salem, which I have attended from age 12 and which strives to raise students to be critical, caring and tolerant adults. An important maxim at Salem was “plus est en vous” – there is more in you. My upbringing on the one hand and my personal experience on the other, finally convinced me that values like responsibility, autonomy, courage, tolerance, fairness and commitment are important factors for a successful life. As such, I see myself as an involved citizen, believing in the personal responsibility of people and libertarian values in economy and society.”
Carolina Müller-Möhl (born in 1968 from Zurich) studied, after finishing her secondary education at the international boarding school Schloss Salem in Germany, Politics, History and Law at Ruprecht-Karls University Heidelberg, the London School of Economics, and at the Otto-Suhr Institut at Freie Universität Berlin, where she graduated as Political Scientist. She also attended various trainings at the Europa Institute at the University of Basel.
Since 2000, Carolina Müller-Möhl has managed and presided over the Müller-Möhl Group, a Single Family Office that actively manages the family’s investments. She was a member of the Board of Directors of Nestlé S.A. from 2004-2012. Since 2010, she has been a Board member of Neue Zürcher Zeitung (NZZ), a major media group in Switzerland and, since 2008, Orascom Development Group Holding (Orascom Development), which is promoted as a leading international town developer committed to the highest sustainable environmental practices.
Müller-Möhl is highly committed to address sociopolitical causes, and brings her efforts under the Müller-Möhl Foundation that she founded in 2012. The focus of the foundation is on education, reconciliation of work and family life and libertarian economic and societal policies in Switzerland.
