Due Diligence & Background Checks in Zurich
Verification & Due Diligence 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.
What you need to know about a counterparty before the second meeting. We verify identity, corporate record, litigation history and reputation through documented sources, and tell you what could not be established as clearly as what could.
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 check is lawful and the subject is never approached.
- 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
Verification & Due Diligence in Zurich, without the theatre.
What can be verified about a counterparty in Switzerland?
We verify identity, corporate record, litigation history and reputation through documented sources, and tell you what could not be established as clearly as what could. Every check is lawful and the subject is never approached.
How long does a check on a Zurich business take?
It depends on the request and the season. Your relationship manager gives you a realistic timeframe when you ask, and says early if it is not achievable rather than late.
Is the subject told they are being checked?
Discretion is the default. Nothing about the arrangement is shared beyond the people carrying it out, and nothing is disclosed to a counterparty without your instruction.
What sources are used beyond public records?
We verify identity, corporate record, litigation history and reputation through documented sources, and tell you what could not be established as clearly as what could. Every check is lawful and the subject is never approached.
