NPB Neue Privat Bank AG

NPB Neue Privat Bank AG is a Swiss private bank based in Zurich that focuses on wealth management, investment advisory, and custody services for private clients, entrepreneurs, family offices, external asset managers, and selected institutional clients. The bank offers discretionary portfolio management and advisory mandates, multicurrency accounts, execution and custody across equities, fixed income, funds, ETFs, and structured products through an open-architecture approach, and may provide Lombard lending secured by liquid portfolios subject to eligibility and risk controls. Clients can expect standard Swiss private banking onboarding with full KYC/AML documentation, source-of-wealth verification, and cross-border restrictions determined by domicile and local marketing rules; minimum relationship sizes typically apply and vary by service tier. Fees generally include management and/or performance fees on mandates, custody and safekeeping charges, brokerage and transaction costs, FX markups, and account or platform fees; obtaining a written fee schedule and total cost illustration before engagement is advisable. The bank provides e-banking and consolidated reporting, with periodic statements, tax reports where available, and support for Common Reporting Standard and FATCA requirements; tax compliance remains the client’s responsibility. As a Swiss bank supervised by FINMA, it participates in the Swiss depositor protection scheme (esisuisse), which covers eligible cash deposits up to CHF 100,000 per client per bank; custody assets are held off-balance sheet in line with Swiss segregation rules, though market, liquidity, credit, operational, and currency risks remain with the investor. Service scope, product availability, and lending are contingent on client profile, risk appetite, and legal constraints, and the bank’s scale and geographic coverage are narrower than those of large universal banks. Prospective clients should assess mandate terms, minimums, fee transparency, execution quality, reporting formats, digital channel capabilities, and the bank’s ability to support their domicile and cross-border needs before opening an account.
