Our New Series of Events Is Here – Welcome To The Wealth Talks!

With the beginning of the new year and a new decade, we decided to make a bold step towards integrating the Swiss Wealth Management community. With strong clients and partners network, full of experienced professionals, we are sure that we can bring new quality to the expert’s dedicated events in our industry.

‍

The concept

‍

Like all the great Wealth Managers, we believe in trust, informed decisions and mutual growth. That’s why we are launching Wealth Talks, a series of events for the Wealth Management community in Switzerland. The purpose is to bring together the smartest brains of the industry and enable knowledge sharing, partnerships building and networking.

Each quarter we will be tackling fresh issues from the industry by having experts showcasing their experience on the stage and interacting with the participants afterward. As we would like to stay as relevant as possible, please feel free to share your ideas for the topics we should be discussing during the events!

The theme for January

‍

We are starting in January with the events in Geneva (28.01) and Zurich (30.01). The first big topic that we will look at is Technology in Wealth Management. After a decade of disruption in most industries (including banking), there is no doubt that the influence of technology on business is enormous. The question is what are the threats and opportunities that it brings to Wealth Management in the upcoming years? And how to proactively capitalize on it, rather than passively react to change when it is inevitable?  

Together with our experts, we will make some predictions for 2020 and the next decade. You can expect the discussion around AI, Cloud, CRM, PMS and more!
