Independent, practical and free of product sales: this is who writes VAPA and how we work.
Who we are
VAPA is an independent blog about wealth management in Switzerland. It is written by a small editorial team with hands-on experience in Swiss independent wealth management and private banking.
We write for relationship managers, external asset managers, family offices and everyone who wants to understand how independent wealth management works in practice.
What we cover
Our articles explain how independent wealth managers work with clients, custodian banks and regulators. We cover careers, client relations, investing, regulation, technology and industry news, with a focus on Switzerland and its main wealth management hubs.
Editorial principles
- Independence: We do not sell financial products. Our editorial choices are our own.
- Transparency: Members of our team work in Swiss independent wealth management. We write about this industry as participants, not as neutral observers.
- Advertising is clearly marked: Paid placements carry the label “sponsored” and are separated from editorial content. Advertisers have no influence on what we write.
- Sources: Where facts matter, we rely on primary sources such as FINMA, Swiss legislation and industry associations, and link to them.
- Updates: We review important articles regularly. Each article shows when it was last updated.
- Guest contributions and interviews: They reflect the views of their authors. We always name the original source.
- No advice: Our content is for information only. It is not investment, legal or tax advice.
How VAPA is financed
VAPA is financed through clearly marked advertising. You will find formats, prices and the booking form on our advertising page.
