Our principals

PERSONAL SERVICE FOR THE HIGHEST NEEDS

The roots of the company are in the successful care of demanding high net worth individuals. Since our beginnings, we have preserved the art of satisfying individual needs to the highest degree of quality and in a short period of time. To maintain this understanding of quality, each portfolio manager currently manages a maximum of two dozen portfolios.

With a high level of service quality and, in particular, our specialization in income-driven niches, hybrid bonds and equities plus options, we have been able to extend our clientele to institutional investors such as pension funds, family offices and churches. Our "origin", namely the cooperation with wealthy private clients, gives us today the advantage to still be able to meet the special requirements of institutional investors with the highest demand of service quality.

Together for a better world

Since July 2020, we have been committed to the UN Global Compact corporate responsibility initiative and its principles in the areas of human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption. Therefore, it is our concern to incorporate the ten principles in our business activities, to develop a sustainable corporate culture and to subject our strategy to a sustainable and responsible guiding idea.

As a participant of the UN Global Compact, we promote the understanding and awareness of our actions as a company and strive to continuously advance our commitment.
