Establish a Second Home for Your Assets in Switzerland

Establishing a secondary jurisdiction for assets 

Switzerland is often evaluated as a complementary jurisdiction for holding and managing assets outside an investor’s home country.

Expanding beyond domestic market exposure

International diversification involves allocating assets across different markets, currencies, and legal frameworks rather than relying solely on domestic exposure.

Reducing portfolio concentration risk

Global diversification is commonly assessed as a way to distribute economic, currency, and institutional risk across jurisdictions.

Accessing Swiss and international financial infrastructure

Switzerland is frequently used as a coordination hub for assets held in multiple regions and markets worldwide.

Working with Swiss-based SEC-registered wealth managers

Swiss wealth managers typically operate in regulated environments and work with internationally active clients across borders.

Using Swiss and international custodian banks

Assets managed by Swiss advisors may be held with Swiss or non-Swiss custodian banks, depending on client needs and regulatory considerations.

Coordinating with experienced Swiss-based professionals

Wealth management in Switzerland often involves collaboration with tax advisors, legal counsel, fiduciaries, and other specialists.

Evaluating Switzerland’s institutional and legal framework

Switzerland is often reviewed for its political structure, regulatory environment, and long-standing role in cross-border financial services.

Aligning asset structures with long-term planning objectives

Jurisdictional decisions are typically considered alongside broader financial, family, and cross-border planning considerations.

Plan for the future • Align financial decisions with lifestyle priorities • Structure assets in a way that supports long-term planning across jurisdictions

Interview with Elias Bachmann, CEO

Q: Elias, congratulations on your new role AS CEO. What excites you most about leading REYL Overseas Intesa Sanpaolo Group?

Thank you. What excites me most is the unique positioning of REYL Overseas Intesa Sanpaolo Group within Switzerland and Europe. We are registered with the SEC as an investment advisor and licensed by FINMA Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority as a portfolio manager, which allows us to serve US clients in a compliant and structured way, something that remains relatively rare.
