Tobias Bossard, 47, graduated from the University of Basel with a degree in economics and a minor in law. After working for the Basel Newspaper and the news magazine Facts the Basel native moved to SRF, where he completed the SRF Stage from 2006 to 2008. During this training, he mainly worked for "Tagesschau" and "ECO".

After the SRF stage, Tobias Bossard continued to work as an editor and later as a producer for the business magazine. In the fall of 2014, he moved to the news magazine "10vor10", and at the beginning of 2015, he took over as team leader of the then newly founded business editorial team, which began operations in April 2015 and is responsible for the economic reporting of "Tagesschau" and "10vor10" as well as for the program "SRF Börse".

In fall 2018, Tobias Bossard will take up the position of TV correspondent for the Basel region. He succeeds Georg Halter, who is leaving SRF after 14 years to join Manor, where he will take over as Head of Corporate Communications.

Tobias Bossard: "After 20 years in business journalism, often with a national or global perspective, I am now very much looking forward to local stories, close to the people and no less relevant - also because the local will continue to gain in importance. And the Basel region has many such stories to offer, which in turn often have a national or even international reach, especially in the areas of culture, science and business."
