Welcome to the Vontobel EAM Desk
Your point of contact for external asset managers
How we advise external asset managers:
“Open and straightforward. Personally there for you.”
For us, a reliable partnership means continuous support from experienced local contacts. They understand your needs and act quickly—supported by short decision-making processes, clear communication, and a strong commitment.
How we support you
Our teams support independent asset managers in Switzerland and abroad—straight to the point. Our services include execution and custody, access to Vontobel’s investment expertise, and dedicated support from your contact person.
Our EAM specialists are right where you need them.
The teams in Zurich combine many years of experience with a fresh perspective. Many team members have been working in the EAM business for years—some since its early days—while others have developed their careers within Vontobel. This mix ensures continuity and a deep understanding of your business.
