At the same time, the team in Central Switzerland has positioned itself as a reliable long-term partner that pursues a holistic advisory approach.

"Vontobel is committed to delivering global, active wealth and asset management that meets the highest standards of quality and is well established at a local level. Our branch in Lucerne has grown thanks to our loyal clients, who value our investment expertise and our wealth management services, as well as our employees, who demonstrate a strong client focus and deliver on our strategy in their daily work. We are delighted that we have been able to appoint a future branch manager from among our own ranks,” stated Jean-Pierre Stillhart, Head of Vontobel Wealth Management German-speaking Switzerland.
