Piquet Galland

The Bank

At Piguet Galland, we have more than 150 years of experience as a boutique private bank. We have been managing our clients’ wealth with the utmost care and attention, generation after generation, since 1856. Our roots in French-speaking Switzerland run deep: our head office has long been located in Yverdon-les-Bains, and we also have offices in Geneva, Lausanne, Neuchâtel and Nyon. Piguet Galland has been part of BCV Group (rated AA-) since 1991.

We provide a comprehensive range of private banking services, such as financing, pension planning and asset management, to both individual and institutional clients. Our ultimate goal? To contribute to our clients' well-being by helping them achieve their life goals.

Our Investment approach

We seek first and foremost to protect our clients’ wealth, but we also strive to consistently outperform the market over the long term. Our approach is conviction-based, and we take a long-term view to investing. We do not think twice about going against the trend and taking contrarian positions in extreme market conditions. In these situations, the crowd often gets it wrong, carried away by either euphoria or panic.

Our team of market analysts and fund managers has experienced several economic cycles, and they put the knowledge they have gained to work for our clients. In addition to our in-house management expertise, we have a proven track record in selecting and monitoring outside funds, particularly those investing in far-off or niche markets where specialised knowledge is a must. When we are looking to invest in a clearly defined theme, we choose from among the best fund managers, wherever they are in the world. We are convinced that this approach brings real value added to our asset allocation strategy.

Unique Selling Proposition (USP)

First of all, we'll sit down with you to assess your personal and professional situation, looking at your assets, your pension situation and your financial liabilities.

But our relationship with you is about more than simply growing your wealth.
