The great wealth transfer is underway. With the next generation set to inherit USD 31 trillion over the coming decade, managing family wealth is a complex and critical endeavour. It’s not just about finances – it’s about preserving legacy, values, and family unity.

This month’s Must-See Charts spotlight two big shifts that are reshaping the future of investing and our response to them. Private assets are unlocking long-term growth in clean energy, healthcare, and tech and the electrification boom is creating powerful opportunities as electricity demand surges. It is not just about riding out volatility, it is about strategically positioning for what’s next. See how it all connects – in one clear view: http://spkl.io/6046fF0s6 #economicoutlooks #investmentinsights #rethinkeverything #lombardodier

In a recent interview with @Valor Econômico, Frédéric Rochat, Managing Partner at Lombard Odier, discussed how the Swiss private bank is strengthening its presence in Brazil’s dynamic wealth management market. After entering the market in 2020 to support offshore investments, Lombard Odier is now expanding into onshore advisory, offering Brazilian clients a unified wealth management experience, both locally and globally. With over USD 200 billion under management, and a boutique presence in Brazil, Frédéric Rochat explains that Lombard Odier is staying true to its philosophy of long-term, personalised wealth stewardship, prioritising deep relationships over product-led models, especially in today’s high-rate environment.

What will it take to get global financial markets back on a stable footing? We take a look at the factors that have undermined their stability in recent weeks, and seven prerequisites that we think investors should monitor as signs that a sustainable rally is taking shape: http://spkl.io/6046fxGaa #economicoutlooks #investmentinsights #rethinkeverything #lombardodier

Why are US tariffs shaking the dollar? Are global currency markets reshaping in response? How will the dollar continue to react? We examine the impact on the US currency, and see value in havens such as the Swiss franc and Japanese yen: http://spkl.io/6048faMFs #economicoutlooks #investmentinsights #rethinkeverything #lombardodier

The Trump administration’s tariffs have prompted a number of important questions for international investors. We believe the best answer is to avoid panic and chasing market events. We cushioned multi-asset portfolios through overweight allocations to government bonds, and reduced risk exposure by cutting equity allocations from overweight to neutral. There is value in a long-term perspective, and opportunity in fundamentally solid firms that have experienced unjustifiable sell-offs. As uncomfortable as they look now, the market dislocations of recent days offer opportunities, and will eventually settle down.

The US has announced a radical trade reset, imposing import duties on the rest of the world that exceeded market expectations. Will there be room for negotiation? Could some of the impacts be offset by tax cuts or deregulation? We examine the macroeconomic and investment implications of this historic shift in trade policy: http://spkl.io/6044fveeM #economicoutlooks #investmentinsights #rethinkeverything #lombardodier

What does it take to age with vitality and serenity? At Lombard Odier, we believe the key is preparation – nurturing both our health and our wealth. After all, longevity isn’t just about living longer; it’s about ensuring quality of life, both physically and financially.

We also shared expert strategies for managing wealth with confidence, ensuring financial peace of mind for the years ahead. By combining health prevention with thoughtful financial and wealth planning, we lay a strong foundation for navigating each stage of life. #lowomen #rethinkeverything #lombardodier

At our recent LO Women Invest lunch at Browns Hotel, London, we explored "The Psychology of Wealth" with a remarkable group of CEOs, female entrepreneurs, and family office representatives for a dynamic exchange of ideas. @Nannette Hechler-Fayd'herbe, our CIO for EMEA, delivered a clear, data-driven talk on overcoming barriers that often hold women back from investing – from complex jargon to the pressure to fully master the topic before getting started. She encouraged early action, tailored strategies across life stages, and highlighted current opportunities in fixed income for diversification. Senior Wealth Planner @Izzy Holgate offered a fresh perspective on family governance. Using a cruise ship analogy, she illustrated how different family members play different roles and stressed the importance of aligning on shared values and long-term investment goals. Her message: wealth can be more than financial – it’s often the emotional glue that holds families together. The event sparked insightful and lively conversations, underscoring the power of community and peer learning in navigating wealth management. #lowomeninvest #economicoutlooks #investmentinsights #macroeconomics #lombardodier

We take a look at the odds of US assets bouncing back from the extreme volatility of the past few days: http://spkl.io/6040fxuT6 #economicoutlooks #investmentinsights #rethinkeverything #lombardodier

Why should everyday products like plastics and perfumes still rely on fossil fuels? This question was the catalyst for the creation of @Bloom Biorenewables, a Swiss green tech company transforming wood into renewable, high-performance alternatives. By tapping into underused plant components like lignin and hemicellulose, Bloom is developing sustainable inputs for fragrances, resins, and food additives. From lab research to a CHF 13 million Series A, Bloom is now scaling up its impact. In this interview, co-founder @Remy Buser discusses the technology, the challenges of industrialisation, and why “de-fossilisation” is key to a net-zero future.

At our recent event on real estate opportunities, hosted by @Patrice Gras, Head of Swiss Client Relations in Geneva at Lombard Odier, we explored the multifaceted dimensions of a sector undergoing significant transformation.

Our experts explored the key issues impacting this field, especially for entrepreneurs, focusing on the intricacies of tax and legal frameworks and the benefits of options such as contributing assets to a real estate fund. Whether considering a heritage acquisition, a secure investment, or a broader investment strategy, their analyses skillfully balanced opportunity with caution. From wealth planning to credit and in-depth tax comparisons, the discussions provided a wealth of information and insights. #investmentinsights #rethinkeverything #lombardodier

What is the impact of the UK's fiscal adjustments on its economy? Could the UK follow Germany’s lead with a ‘whatever it takes’ pledge to invest in the country’s infrastructure? We look at how slowing growth, higher sovereign yields and the UK government’s own spending rules have undermined its ability to respond to new budget demands, and the urgent need to expand the economy: http://spkl.io/6044fvHl6 #economicoutlooks #investmentinsights #rethinkeverything #lombardodier

Why should investors be excited about sustainability? According to Hubert Keller, Lombard Odier Senior Managing Partner, there are two macro forces challenging business sustainability across all sectors of the economy – the environmental crisis and the social crisis. As these crises “force changes on the real economy,” investors must seek out sustainable businesses – those adapting to, or even accelerating, the transition to a net-zero, nature-positive, socially-equitable economy.
