Overview:
Mirabaud today is an internationally active group providing financial services geared to clients who seek personalised relationships, high-quality services and maximum performance. The group has its roots in one of Switzerland’s oldest banking establishments, Mirabaud & Cie, banquiers privés, founded in Geneva in 1819. Keeping faith with our 19th-century heritage, we continue to adhere to our traditional values: attentiveness and confidentiality, listening skills and well-considered advice, expertise and savoir-vivre of the private banker. Today in the 21st century, although private banking remains our core competence, we have broadened our activities and developed a whole range of tailor-made services for private and institutional clients. For you, our client, we are present under one and the same name on three continents and right at the heart of the world’s leading financial centres. |

History:
Founded in 1819 as David-Marc Paccard & Co. Bank. Name changed to MM. Paccard, Mirabaud & Co. in 1875, after Yvan Mirabaud became a partner. Current name adopted in 1911. The bank has traditionally had close ties with France. Opened Zurich office in 1998. Acquired 60% of Banque Jenni & Cie, Basel, in 2004. Boosted stake to 100% in 2007 and converted the bank into its Basel branch in January 2008.
2011 Fund management is concentrated in Luxembourg
Mirabaud concentrates all its investment fund activities in Luxembourg, where it sets up Mirabaud Asset Management (Europe) S.A., the very first Luxembourg fund manager to be certified compliant with UCITS IV requirements.
2010 Mirabaud moves into Spain and enlarges its range in Switzerland
Mirabaud takes a stake in the capital of the Spanish group Venture Finanzas and integrates it within its own brand, carving itself a position in Spain, particularly in the three key areas of private banking, asset management and intermediation.
Mirabaud, which has been involved in intermediation in London for 20 years, ramps up its offering by launching a new brokerage platform in Geneva named Mirabaud Securities LLP – Representative Office Switzerland.
2009 Establishes Independent Debt Capital Markets LLP in London
Mirabaud develops its corporate finance activities in London, establishing the company Independent Debt Capital Markets LLP (IDCM), which acts as Mirabaud’s exclusive representative and enables it to offer advisory, structuring and execution services for issuers and investors.
2008 New head office in Geneva; Basel gains branch status
Following the merger of Banque Jenni & Cie and Mirabaud & Cie in 2004, Mirabaud’s presence in Basel takes on a new form as the newly integrated company gains branch status.
At the same time, Mirabaud opens its new head office in Geneva. Mirabaud now hosts all of its core services in a single building, in response to sustained, continuous growth.
2007 Dubai office opens
In 2007, Mirabaud is granted approval by the authorities of the United Arab Emirates to establish a company providing wealth and asset management for private clients in Dubai – Mirabaud (Middle East) Limited. This innovative office has its own specific business model as a multi-custodian management company working with local banks and with institutions in Switzerland and Singapore.
2006 A single brand for Mirabaud
At an international conference in Paris, Mirabaud announces the launch of a single brand for the whole of the group and its offices, marking an important step in its development. All activities are now grouped together under one single name: Mirabaud. This single brand acts as a symbol of the group’s shared values and management’s desire to strengthen its presence around the world and reinforce its visibility and identity.
2004 The group’s activities in Switzerland are strengthened
After linking up with Banque Jenni & Cie and working in close collaboration with that institution’s management team, Mirabaud enhances its strategic penetration in Switzerland from Basel. This institution, now integrated into the Mirabaud brand, provides the group with a platform for conducting its activities out of Basel, one of the country’s key financial centres.
2003 A Paris office and brokerage firm in Hong Kong open
In 2003, Mirabaud strengthens its presence in continental Europe by setting up Mirabaud Gestion SA in Paris. The group also expands its Asian presence by opening a brokerage firm, Mirabaud Securities (Asia) Ltd, in Hong Kong, offering new services in Asian securities.
2002 Institutional and IT services are strengthened
Mirabaud establishes LPP Gestion SA in Geneva in 2002, expanding its range to include liability management services for pension funds. This company is also an expert in consulting and administrative, accounting and technical management for pension institutions.
In IT, Mirabaud has always managed its own proprietary developments internally in order to respond as appropriately as possible to the demands in terms of high security and the tailored services that the institution renders to its clients. Based on this experience in the development of bank IT applications, Mirabaud sets up MirServices SA, a company that markets the Mirabel solution to other banks and performs installation.
2001 Institutional asset management in Switzerland is developed
Mirabaud builds on its decade of experience in institutional asset management, through its London-based teams in particular, to develop institutional asset management in Switzerland. It offers this type of client the benefit of its specific expertise – namely its management ability – from both Geneva and Zurich.
1998 Zurich branch opens
By opening a branch in Zurich, moving into Switzerland’s foremost financial centre, Mirabaud consolidates its position in its home country. This move is reinforced by the acquisition of the management company Aegis AG, which is integrated into the Mirabaud brand.
1997 Hong Kong office opens
Mirabaud confirms its ambition to diversify and develop by opening its first office in Asia. From this date, it can now offer its clients privileged access to new markets via its Hong Kong office.
1990 Historical presence in London is strengthened
In 1990, Mirabaud acquires a majority stake in London-based Mirabaud Pereire Holdings Ltd, extending the Mirabaud Group’s offering in the UK market to brokerage services for institutional clients (Mirabaud Securities LLP) and fund management services to pension funds (Mirabaud Investment Management Ltd). This offering is not limited to institutional clients; private clients can also benefit from the services developed here.
1985 Montreal office opens, paving the way for international expansion
Mirabaud opens its first office outside Switzerland in 1985, embarking on a period of international expansion and development.
1974 A pioneer in alternative investment management
Mirabaud & Cie is one of the first institutions in Switzerland to take the view that alternative investment management could improve the performance of its clients’ assets. Together with a group of other European private investors, Pierre Mirabaud launches a fund specialising in the US market that invests not directly in securities, but via a multi-manager strategy. This fund, which is based on the principle that one should draw on the greatest expertise available in the market, uses a rigorous selection policy to identify the best managers of alternative investments from around the world.
1931 Co-founder of the Geneva Private Bankers Association
A member of Swiss Bankers Association and the Swiss Private Bankers Association, in 1931 Mirabaud becomes a co-founder, alongside other Swiss private banking institutions, of the Geneva Private Bankers Association.
1857 Founder member of Switzerland’s first securities exchange
Mirabaud is involved in every stage of the birth and development of the Swiss banking system. It is today a member of the SIX Swiss Exchange, and in 1857 became one of the founders of Switzerland’s first ever securities exchange in Geneva.
1819 Mirabaud & Cie, banquiers privés, is founded in Geneva
Founded in 1819, Mirabaud & Cie, banquiers privés is one of Switzerland’s oldest banks. In nearly two centuries of existence, the bank has witnessed far-reaching changes and experienced both boom years and periods of economic depression, financial crises and many other events that have altered the political, financial and social landscape. Over this time, Mirabaud has also evolved from a family business to a group with international reach. |
