Tradition and quality

Founded in 1956 in Vaduz, Liechtenstein, VP Bank has grown steadily from a friendly local bank to become a globally active financial services enterprise. 

The founder of VP Bank, Guido Feger, was a successful entrepreneur and one of Liechtenstein’s most highly regarded fiduciaries. Right from the start, he demonstrated innovation, competence and courage, while never veering from the fundamental principles of client orientation and financial security. These tenets have been resolutely upheld for what is now more than half a century.

Performance and trust – Guido Feger lived and breathed this business philosophy. To this very day, each and every employee of VP Bank Group lays claim to that ethos of quality. A number of international awards for the quality of the Bank’s client advice and ancillary services, as well as its competence in transaction processing, attest to this pronounced quality consciousness.

In 1983, VP Bank became Liechtenstein’s first exchange-listed company, and ever since then it has been present in the international banking system via the euro money market. The philanthropic activities of the Bank’s founder have been continued by its major shareholder, Stiftung Fürstlicher Kommerzienrat Guido Feger.

 

Competencies and client advice

Tailor-made wealth planning, asset management and investment advice for a demanding private clientele represent VP Bank’s core competencies. The Bank is also an established partner for financial intermediaries who especially count on decades of experience and a modern infrastructure.

One of the strengths of VP Bank is its independence in terms of providing financial advice. The investment solutions are based on the principle of “open archi­tecture”, an approach that also takes into account the best-in-class products and services of third-party providers. The result: conflicts of interest are avoided right from the start. 

Together with its partners throughout the world, VP Bank recommends either the best traditional investment instruments to its clients or develops proprietary, innovative solutions. The global presence of VP Bank Group means that it can draw on a vast pool of expertise, so that country-specific circumstances can be taken into account when necessary. Thanks to this open architecture and best-in-class approach, clients can always rest assured that they have the most suitable investment instruments in their portfolio.

In addition, VP Bank’s innovative e-banking application affords clients freedom of movement and maximum security when conducting banking transactions. They have round-the-clock electronic access to their secur­ities and deposit accounts.

With roughly 700 employees, VP Bank Group has the right size to offer top-notch solutions with a personal touch. Clients enjoy the individualised advice of a private bank while simultaneously gaining access to a worldwide network of specialists. And not least of all, the structured and transparent investment process ensures straightforward decisions, which accrue to the benefit of the client.
