When it comes to wealth planning and management, no standard off-the-shelf product or solution will address the complex financial, tax and asset management issues our clients face today. At the Swisspath Group, we make it personal. Our specialists provide advice, assistance and guidance in the following areas, tailored to the specific needs of each and every client.
In an ever-changing financial landscape, we are resourceful and connected. Our collective knowledge, combined with comprehensive assessments performed by internal and external specialists, enables us to confidently handle all legal and tax matters, regardless of complexity.
From the outset, we deliver sound legal consulting and tax advice, services and solutions. We also create and refine tax compliant and efficient wealth management strategies tailored to the specific needs of each client. Also, we cover all aspects of Swiss legal and tax services for private and corporate clients and further assist them in the tax and legal structuring of wealth in an international environment.
One of our core competencies is providing advice and assistance in the set-up and administration of investment funds. We leverage our insight, know-how and experience in private equity investments to generate value and develop operating models that guarantee transparency on investments – while at the same time mitigating risks.
We structure and protect intergenerational wealth transfers through our in-house trustee or in partnership with trusted external providers. In both cases, our experienced professionals consider all relevant legal, financial and tax implications to establish a solid, sustainable and efficient set-up.
The set-up and administration of corporate structures require expertise and experience. Our administration team provides this service with a passion that revolves around a personal relationship with each of our clients. This enables the consolidation of assets as well as the strategic development and growth of businesses.
Our services include accounting and financial reporting across jurisdictions as well as consolidated overviews on the status and development of assets. This holistic approach paves the way for thorough and informed business and investment decisions.
Our focus is to account for, protect, and manage client’s wealth assets and location is an important factor. Our services include assisting clients in selecting the new center of domicile for their family, application of a residence permit and citizenship in other jurisdictions, as well as the purchase or rent of real estate and support with regards to insurance.

We are independent specialists licenced by FINMA (Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority) with an open architecture model, which enables us to develop investment strategies and services unique to our clients. Irrespective of the service provided, we adhere to our key principles, which are: honesty, transparency and accountability, at all times. When shaping a client strategy we endeavour to build a personalised client relationship for each mandate and to take the necessary time to analyse all aspects of their situation.
Performance is only one element of a successful portfolio management strategy. Risk exposure, the tactical and strategic asset allocation, cash flow planning, provider selection and personal client preferences are all important factors. Our specialists consider each of these aspects when designing and implementing strategies tailored to the client’s need – ensuring an effective balance and relationship between risk and return.
Our aim is to support clients with all their wealth planning needs. As such, our team of experts focus on delivering what is important to each client. The investment advice we provide includes discretionary asset management mandates designed to free clients from making day-to-day investment decisions as well as investment advice mandates, tailored to clients’ specific requirements. This includes the elaboration of tactical and strategical investment concepts, the implementation of the framework, the insight of market research and views, elaboration of hedging strategies, etc.
Control and transparency are paramount in wealth management. Our team of specialists analyses, monitors, and where required, restructures mandates of other Asset Managers to ensure that we provide the best solution and service to each client. This includes the review of direct and indirect costs, proactive interaction with portfolio managers and continuous monitoring of the implementation of the defined restrictions and regulatory compliance.
Throughout the entire process, we maintain strong relationships. We provide clients with transparency and control through consolidated and detailed reporting services across all asset classes and custodian platforms.
Our investment professionals are experienced advisors on the formation, structuring and financing of private equity funds and investments. Each investment proposal is designed to address our client’s particular risk, return and liquidity needs.
