The bank is owned by the Hoffmann and the Oeri families, descendants of Fritz Hoffmann-La Roche and owner of the pharmaceutical company Hoffmann-La Roche. Scobag employs around 30 people. The bank manages the assets of several dozen charitable foundations, including the Paul Sacher Foundation and the Steineck Foundation of Gisela and Andreas Oeri-Trefzer, bearer of the “Spielzeug Welten Museum Basel”.

If the clients wish to manage their assets independently, then Scobag is happy to advise them with their experience. The client is regularly informed about market development and special topics.
Selecting investments and managing assets is based on seven fundamental principles: value orientation, independence, simplicity, quality, liquidity, active acting and sustainability.
Value orientation

Simplicity

Quality
The central role of Scobag’s investment universe plays marketable shares of companies with sound business conduct and long-term prospects for success. The companies act responsibly. Only first-class corporate bonds with an investment grade are chosen for investment.
Liquidity
The investment is primarily made in liquid securities that can be traded at any time. This can almost exclusively be done via direct investment, which has sufficient market liquidity. Hedge funds are excluded from Scobag’s asset allocation.
Active acting
The investment tactics are closely aligned with the economic environment and the current state of the financial markets. These factors serve for the decision making for various activities like the liquidity held, the breakdown of bonds by duration and currencies and the orientation of the equity portfolio into defensive and cyclical companies.
Sustainability
When selecting investments, Scobag attaches the utmost importance to a sustainable business behavior and model. Environmental, social and ecological criterias are constantly reviewed.

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.
