Mission / Values
Compagnie Privée de Conseils et d’Investissements SA is an independent provider of investment advice. It grew out of the bank AAM Banque Privée (formerly Atag Asset Management SA), which had been in business since 1917 and whose sole shareholder, La Banque Cantonale de Bâle, decided to sell the Geneva branch in 2010.
Since Compagnie Privée de Conseils et d’Investissements SA voluntarily gave up its status following the transfer of assets to Hyposwiss Private Bank Genève SA in August 2017, it no longer operates as a securities trader on behalf of clients and as a result, is no longer subject to the Swiss Federal Act on Stock Exchanges and Securities Trading (LBVM). Our company now offers financial, real estate and art-related services and is planning to introduce a range of family office services.

Compagnie Privée de Conseils et d’Investissements SA combines a rigorous approach to its work with the flexibility of a business on a human scale.
