<strong>Mission</strong> <strong>Statement</strong><br />

<strong>Rahn</strong> & <strong>Bodmer</strong> Co.<br />

<strong>Our</strong> profile<br />

<strong>Rahn</strong> & <strong>Bodmer</strong>, private bankers since 1750, the oldest private bank in Zurich.<br />

<strong>Our</strong> activity<br />

We work with clients to provide them wealth management services on an individual <strong>and</strong><br />

personal basis.<br />

− We have been working with private clients for generations, <strong>and</strong> we will be there for<br />

future generations as well.<br />

− For independent asset managers <strong>and</strong> institutional investors we are a reliable <strong>and</strong><br />

competent business partner.<br />

<strong>Our</strong> traits<br />

Personal<br />

We maintain relationships with our clients over many years.<br />

As a family-owned bank we underst<strong>and</strong> the power <strong>and</strong> impact of clear values.<br />

These values include loyalty, continuity <strong>and</strong> professional ethics. We know that only<br />

through deeds <strong>and</strong> exemplary action can we gain credibility. Credibility brings trust, <strong>and</strong><br />

we work hard at earning this trust <strong>and</strong> continuously reaffirming it. This consistency<br />

enables us to have relationships that span generations <strong>and</strong> to create a working culture<br />

that gives our employees stability <strong>and</strong> perspective.<br />

Independent<br />

We are independent in every way.<br />

We are an independent company with a clear ownership structure. For us as a company<br />

this independence is crucial.<br />

This independence is evident in the way we h<strong>and</strong>le economic constraints. <strong>Our</strong><br />

operations are solid, we work with the big picture in mind, <strong>and</strong> we don’t speculate. And<br />

as a general rule, we do not have any proprietary products that could influence us in our<br />

investment recommendations.<br />

Efficient<br />

We deliver.<br />

As a specialist bank, we know that we will be compared with other banks that operate<br />

differently. <strong>Our</strong> specialization offers advantages. We have lean structures, we delegate<br />

decision-making authority to the front office, <strong>and</strong> we invest in state-of-the-art working<br />

tools. We are flexible <strong>and</strong> cost-effective because we work with the best specialists in<br />

small teams.<br />

Rooted<br />

Zurich is our home.<br />

We have our roots in Zurich <strong>and</strong> our only office is located here. We are closely tied to our<br />

city <strong>and</strong> its values, <strong>and</strong> we are part of Zurich’s culture <strong>and</strong> society. Thus a certain<br />

amount of restraint <strong>and</strong> sobriety is normal for us.<br />

The strength of our roots gives us stability. But it also gives us the ability to feel at home<br />

anywhere in the world.<br />
