About Us

Home / About Us

OUR MISSION.

We believe in the need for a more balanced relationship between financial institutions and their clients, when it comes to both market knowledge, expertise, and transparency.

 

We are not independent, we are always on our client´s side.

 

We believe remuneration for market experts needs to take into consideration both risk and expected returns. And requires alignment.

 

We invest alongside our clients for the long term, so that we can appreciate the significance of events also in the short term.

 

We believe we live in an age of constant change and innovation. But where trade, capital, information, and people flows are still dampened significantly by distance.

 

We help connect people that have become the best in their field.  Across the globe, and regardless of background or belief. This opens our eyes to new directions, and leads to intellectual and personal enrichment.

 

We believe a strategic relationship goes beyond investments.

WHAT WE DO.

We are multi-asset managers and our portfolios have a distinct focus on capital preservation and income generation.

WAP targets returns in excess of 3-5% per annum above inflation.

WAP employs robust risk parameters, providing strong controls and a high level of transparency and customization.

WAP manages assets through advisory or discretionary mandates, as separate accounts, or in funds and insurance policy formats.

PRESERVING WEALTH

Preserving family wealth is at the core of Wealth Investment Advisory. In all cultures, in all geographies, in all economic systems and at all points in the economic cycle, families typically create and lose their wealth within three generations;

(“Wealth comes like a turtle and goes away like a Gazelle” )

Chi la crea, chi la mantiene e chi la distrugge
(“One who make, one who maintains, one who destroys”)

Erwerben, Vererben, Verderben
(“Acquire, Leave, Ruin”)
