Unifinanz Trust

What Unifinanz Trust does

Unifinanz Trust reg. is a privately held, Liechtenstein-domiciled wealth and asset management firm headquartered in Schaan (Im Bretscha 2), with the entity tracing back to 1952 and the asset management business operating under an FMA license since 2006 (commercial register FL-0001.005.094-9). The firm serves high-net-worth individuals (privateers, entrepreneurs, lawyers, professionals), single and multi-family offices, foundation councils, trustees, and institutional investors across the DACH and broader European region, with research monitors also covering North American and select Asia-Pacific markets. Its client roster is not publicly named; the website displays illustrative personas (Sophie, Jessica, Oliver, Anna, Paul, Marc, Olivia) rather than disclosed customer logos.

The service offering is organized around five pillars: the Wealth Studio® registered integrated advisory platform, Investment Controlling (transparency and oversight of existing portfolios), Wealth Management (holistic discretionary/ advisory mandates), Family Office Services (tailored advisory and investment controlling for single and multi-family offices), and Research & Monitoring. The technology stack is proprietary: an in-house RSMV (Relative Strength, Sentiment, Momentum, Volatility) model, an internally developed Portfolio Management System maintained by a Product & Innovation function, and a suite of published research monitors spanning European equities, North American equities, currencies, and global sectors (Healthcare and IT). Wealth Studio® is a registered trademark.

Commercially, the firm operates a relationship-driven, sales-led model with no self-serve or product-led motion; client acquisition runs through direct advisory engagement, referrals, and content marketing (a monthly newsletter authored by Senior Partner Alfons Cortés, downloadable research monitors as lead magnets, and a bilingual DE/EN website). Revenue is generated through fee-based asset management and advisory engagements under Liechtenstein EAS investor compensation coverage since 2015, with no public pricing. The team comprises approximately 15-20 staff, with active build-out across risk/BI, client services, regulatory/corporate affairs, and product/innovation, and the firm relocated to expanded Schaan premises in June 2024.
