We do a lot. And we’ve got the reach, insight and talent to stay at the top of our industry.

We offer comprehensive financial products and services to private, corporate and institutional clients in Switzerland. And our leading position in these segments is how we maintain a multi-channel approach.

The business is a central element of our universal bank delivery model, supporting other business divisions by referring clients and growing the wealth of our private clients (so they can be transferred to Wealth Management).
