Lombard Odier celebrates thirtieth anniversary of its Vevey office

As the only Swiss private bank on the Riviera, Lombard Odier is continuing to grow strongly in the domestic market thanks primarily to its global approach to wealth

The Vevey office, the second Lombard Odier Group presence in the canton of Vaud, is celebrating its thirtieth anniversary this year. It responds to clients' needs for a local branch of Geneva's oldest private bank, like those in Lausanne, Fribourg and Zurich.

As the only Swiss private bank in a dynamic region with many entrepreneurs and senior executives, Lombard Odier stands out for its expertise, its personalised offering and its solutions for its traditional market. “Our specific approach enables entrepreneurs and their families to consider their assets in a global, coordinated and efficient manner, integrating their private portfolio, their pension assets and the surplus cash in their company. This means they benefit from a truly global service, with relationship management matching the growing mobility of customers," says Jacques Ducrest, head of the Vevey office.

As a preferred partner for services to entrepreneurs and their families, Lombard Odier has developed an attractive offering for clients resident in Switzerland. Assisted by investment specialists and wealth advisors, the bankers provide a personalised service for structuring and managing all assets, whether these are private, company- or pension-related, so as to generate the best possible return after taxes.

 "We are a bank run by and for entrepreneurs and have 223 years of experience focusing on added-value and quality for our clients. Our expertise lies in the skills of our teams who develop customised solutions and investments for our clients, especially in unlisted assets," says Frédéric Rochat, Managing Partner of the Lombard Odier Group and co-head of the private client business.

"Our specific offering dedicated to entrepreneurs, senior executives and their families is contributing to our strong growth in Switzerland, which is a key market. Our Vevey office pursues our primary mission of preserving and growing the assets of our clients, while fostering a long-term close relationship based on trust," says Denis Pittet, Managing Partner of the Lombard Odier Group and co-head of the private client business.
