Added-Value Services
Linked to the cooperative tradition DZ PRIVATBANK’s mission is to contribute to the well-being of society, and also responds specifically to global problems, such as climate change, a shortage of resources, poverty, demographic changes, deforestation and threats to biodiversity. DZ PRIVATBANK has decided to recognize the ten principles of the UN Global Compact and implement them within their sphere of influence.
The net profit of DZ PRIVATBANK was characterized by the restructuring of the Bank’s business model, the focus on the solution offering, the reduction of complexity and the associated adjustments to the process and structure. Operating income and customer portfolios decreased as a result of the transfer of intangible assets to the parent company DZ PRIVATBANK S.A. in Luxemburg. Thanks to this focus on the core business, operating expenses were also significantly reduced. The persistently low-interest rate environment with negative interest rates in the key markets had an impact on customer deposits and thus on total assets, which at CHF 1’072.4 million were CHF 277.4 million lower than in the previous year (CHF 1’350.0 million).
Provisions fell from CHF 40.7 million to CHF 9.6 million. The outstanding legal cases were almost completely completed in 2017. The restructuring provision was partially used due to ongoing reorganization measures and restructuring.
Given the asset developments in the home market of Germany, the business with wealthy private clients and private banking clients remains highly attractive and is thus highly competitive.

We are a fully independent boutique law firm. That’s why we don’t have any cooperation agreements with the banks.
Few banks do not disclose their Annual Reports to the public. Therefore, we collected reliable information on a best-efforts basis. We renounced to collecting information from unreliable sources. Until today, Swiss law does not impose the duty of publication to the banks as it is the case in the EU. Therefore, for a few banks, the information from the annual reports was not summarized and published.
There are some smaller banks without a rating. It makes no sense for them to apply for a rating because they are not involved in the lending business. If the bank has no rating, it’s not automatically a negative point. There are excellent private banks without a rating.
