Bank Sarasin and AIG Private Bank set up a new bank catering to
affluent clients Basel/Zurich, 9 July 2007 - The Swiss financial
services industry is about to welcome a newcomer: a bank dedicated to
providing clients with investment and savings solutions. Bank Sarasin
& Co. Ltd and AIG Private Bank Ltd. plan to combine their direct
business with affluent clients and their business with independent
financial providers - but not with the external asset managers - to
form a new bank. This new financial institution will initially have
over 235,000 clients in Switzerland, Germany and Austria and will
manage assets of approximately CHF 8 billion. The bank is due to
start business by the end of 2008 at the latest, once the relevant
approvals have been obtained from the Swiss Federal Banking
Commission (SFBC).
