CSR & Philanthropy in Zurich

Zurich is the centre of Swiss private banking and the most discreet money in Europe. Its economy runs on private banking, insurance, commodities trading and watchmaking, and the members we look after here are typically families with Swiss banking relationships going back decades.

Giving structured so it does what you intended. We identify credible organisations, verify how money is actually used, structure the giving properly, and report back on what it did.

Practically, an international airport with an established general aviation presence, and discretion here is a professional standard rather than a preference.

Most of what we arrange here runs between Zurich and India. That means one desk holding both ends, so nothing is lost between an adviser there and a counterparty here, and neither side is left waiting on the other's working hours.

Held locally

How this works in Zurich.

Requests from Zurich reach a named relationship manager rather than a queue, and the same person stays with the request until it is closed.
Every recipient is checked before a rupee moves.
Where something cannot be arranged in Zurich on the terms you have asked for, you are told that plainly and early rather than late.

Questions, answered once

CSR & Philanthropy in Zurich, without the theatre.

What causes are active in and around Zurich?

That depends on what is genuinely open at the time, and it moves. Your relationship manager in Zurich will tell you what is actually available rather than what sounds best.

Can a foundation be set up and run for me?

We identify credible organisations, verify how money is actually used, structure the giving properly, and report back on what it did. Every recipient is checked before a rupee moves.

What are the tax consequences of giving in Switzerland?

The position differs by jurisdiction and changes. We confirm what applies in Switzerland with qualified local advisers before anything proceeds, and set it out for you in writing.

Zurich, looked after.

A line, a call or a message is enough. Your concierge will ask what is necessary and take the rest from there.
