What Makes Swiss Wealth Management Different
What actually sets Swiss wealth management apart? In the latest episode of Swiss Money Secrets, Jamie Vrijhof and Jess Roberson sit down with Vivien Jain, CEO of the Swiss Association of Independent Wealth Managers, to explore that question.
The conversation begins with two timely headlines. A Boston Consulting Group report has suggested that Hong Kong has overtaken Switzerland as a cross-border wealth hub, and a Financial Times report notes that gold has overtaken the US dollar as the most highly allocated reserve asset among central banks. Vivian, Jamie, and Jess look at the context behind both, including why Hong Kong's growth has been driven largely by inflows from China, and how much of gold's rise reflects its climbing price rather than a wholesale move away from the dollar.
