As an unlisted family company, we are independent and take a long-term view. The resulting stability is also reflected in the very good ratings we receive from independent rating agencies for our financial security. Outstanding investment expertise Our investment expertise encompasses asset allocation, manager and security selection. Since no portfolio manager can be successful in all areas at all times, we carefully outsource the management of investments in niche and specialty areas. Our investment approach is based on the best-in-class concept: only asset managers who generate proven added value may work for us and our clients. And even our own fund managers must prove themselves in competition with external specialists. Our investment expertise is regularly recognized with awards from external bodies, including Lipper Analytical Services. You and your investments can also benefit from this comprehensive expert knowledge. Personal care Your relationship manager is your personal partner, who will take care of all your investment needs.
