CIGP

Founded in Geneva in 1964 by a small group of entrepreneurial families, CIGP (Compagnie d'Investissements et de Gestion Privée) has operated across three generations without external ownership, which shapes its client relationships in a concrete way: a single advisor works closely with each client at all times, and the firm does not cross-sell products from affiliated institutions. That structural independence matters to entrepreneurs and families who have grown skeptical of bundled offerings from large banks.

CIGP operates across five offices in Hong Kong, Geneva, Dubai, London, and Milan, and serves clients as a licensed private investment firm rather than a traditional bank. Its wealth management offering covers:

• Tailored portfolio construction across listed and private markets, with explicit capital preservation and appreciation objectives
• Asset management including private equity, private credit, and alternative co-investments
• Investment banking advisory covering M&A, equity and debt financing, and joint ventures
• Corporate services including global custody, cash management, escrow, and fund administration
• A proprietary client-facing e-platform for viewing positions, transactions, performance, and market data

The CIO function is led internally, with a dedicated quantitative research team developing a proprietary investment technology called Sib. CIGP's Chief Investment Officer previously managed the Sassoon Family Office and held a portfolio management role at a Geneva-based multi-family office, giving the investment team direct experience operating within the family office context rather than just serving it from the outside.

This firm suits entrepreneurs and multigenerational families seeking a single counterpart across wealth management, investment banking, and corporate services across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and the firm's restricted focus on professional investors in Hong Kong means it does not serve retail or lower-net-worth clients.
