Wealth of Services

Our comprehensive range of services gives you complete control over the product and lets you determine all parameters for your fund solution. 

We offer you a broad spectrum of different services, from design through implementation to ongoing management and administration of your tailor-made fund solution. You can always rely on our high standards of quality and the expertise of our employees throughout the process.

When setting up a new investment fund, we take on the design and realization of your fund project. We collaborate with you to define the domicile and the best structure for your fund. An interdisciplinary project team is responsible for efficient implementation of the project. 

Alternatively, you can entrust us with the management of the fund structures and the additional tasks associated with this, such as compliance, risk management, and preparing reports required by the regulatory authorities. Our fund management companies in Switzerland and Luxembourg have the necessary expertise. 

We handle the entire fund administration for you. This includes tasks such as transaction settlement, fund accounting, and net asset value calculation. In taking on these responsibilities, we meet the standards as defined by the applicable legal and regulatory provisions. 

Our comprehensive services as a custodian bank in Switzerland and Luxembourg range from the safekeeping of traditional and alternative investments to individual reporting solutions. A sophisticated transfer agency platform provides the ability to manage complex sales networks or to use flexible reporting. 

In addition to fund-based services along the value chain, you profit from access to a wide range of services and from the expertise of a global financial institution in the areas of asset management, brokerage, and prime services, among others.
