Reichmuth & Co

What Reichmuth & Co does

Reichmuth & Co is a Swiss private bank founded in 1996 in Lucerne, organized as an owner-managed family partnership with unlimited liability of its partners — a structure held by only five private banks in Switzerland. The firm serves three primary client segments: private high-net-worth individuals and families, Swiss charitable foundations (managing more than CHF 800 million in foundation assets), and institutional investors (pension funds and insurance companies), with total assets under management of approximately CHF 16 billion.

The product portfolio centers on integral (holistic) wealth management, complemented by pension and vested benefits solutions, foundation establishment and administrative services, and institutional investment offerings including direct infrastructure investments, manager selection, strategy funds, equity funds, and Fund of Funds vehicles (Reichmuth Himalaja for Asia, Reichmuth Matterhorn+ alternatives). Digital access is provided through the e-Connect online banking platform, and the Reichmuth & Co Lecture series — co-hosted with the Institut für Schweizer Wirtschaftspolitik and Universität Luzern — functions as a thought leadership platform. The bank operates five offices: Lucerne (headquarters), Zurich, and St. Gallen in Switzerland, plus Munich and Düsseldorf in Germany via the wholly-owned subsidiary Reichmuth & Co Integrale Vermögensverwaltung AG.

Revenue is generated through recurring asset-based management and advisory fees across the three client segments, with individually negotiated fee schedules and no publicly disclosed pricing. Distribution is exclusively direct via personal relationship managers (Kundenverantwortlicher) at the five offices, with no third-party intermediaries. The unlimited liability partner structure is positioned as a core differentiator, aligning owner risk with long-term client outcomes and reinforcing the absence of sales targets in the firm's stated operating model. No proprietary technology platform is disclosed; the competitive proposition rests on family ownership, partner-level accountability, and continuity of relationship management.
