Helvetische Bank AG

Helvetische Bank AG is a Swiss bank headquartered in Zurich and supervised by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). The institution provides banking and investment services for private clients, entrepreneurs, and corporate clients, including current and custody accounts, discretionary asset management and advisory mandates, brokerage and execution in listed securities and funds, foreign exchange, and Lombard lending secured by portfolios; it also engages in corporate finance advisory and capital markets services for companies. The bank operates without a large branch network and serves clients through relationship managers and digital channels, with an e-banking platform for account access, portfolio reporting, and trading. Onboarding is subject to Swiss know-your-customer and anti-money laundering requirements, and cross-border services are restricted by local regulations; minimum account sizes and eligibility criteria can apply, and residents of certain jurisdictions may be excluded. Pricing typically consists of custody fees, brokerage commissions, foreign-exchange spreads, and advisory or management fees disclosed in the bank’s tariff information. Client assets held in custody are segregated from the bank’s balance sheet under Swiss law; cash deposits are protected by the Swiss depositor protection scheme (esisuisse) up to CHF 100,000 per client, while securities are not covered by deposit insurance. Standard payment services in major currencies are available via international transfers, with processing cut-offs and settlement times depending on currency and destination.
