Overview

Multi-family offices and independent asset managers operating in Switzerland often face a fragmented set of counterparties for custody, fund administration, and regulatory representation. REYL & Cie, operating as REYL Intesa Sanpaolo, consolidates these functions under a single banking relationship, allowing institutional clients to reduce operational overhead without sacrificing access to specialised services.

The Asset Services division is built specifically for finance professionals rather than retail or corporate clients. Its core service set covers:

  • Custody and depositary services, including asset safekeeping, trade settlement, and income collection
  • Paying agent services for bonds, equities, and investment funds
  • Fund Representation Solutions combining Swiss legal representative and paying agent into one counterparty arrangement
  • Investment consulting and delegation
  • Fund administration and structuring support

The division draws on the full operational infrastructure of the bank, including IT, back-office, legal structuring advisory, and both Swiss and international teams. This matters for multi-family offices that need compliance monitoring and Swiss regulatory representation handled by an entity with genuine banking resources behind it, not a standalone intermediary. Clients include banks, pension funds, independent asset managers, securities dealers, and investment fund administrators. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and the offering is clearly oriented toward Swiss-regulated structures, which may limit relevance for family offices operating primarily outside Switzerland.

"REYL Intesa Sanpaolo delivers highly personalised services to its Swiss and international institutional clients, including banks, authorised securities dealers, multi-family offices, independent asset managers, pension funds as well as investment fund managers and administrators."
