Kathrein Privatbank: Best Private Banking Solutions Austria 2020

Inserted into Raiffeisen Bank International, part of one of Austria’s largest banking groups, Kathrein Privatbank enjoys the benefits of scale whilst remaining true to its roots as the traditional and highly exclusive private bank envisioned by its founder Carl Kathrein in 1924.

Discrete, independent, and agile, Kathrein Privatbank is counted amongst the leading private banks of the German-speaking world. The bank draws its custom from high net-worth entrepreneurs, family offices, and private foundations. As an integral part of its services palette, Kathrein Privatbank maintains a finely meshed experts’ network to source individually tailored solutions to legal and fiscal matters, including those that stretch across multiple jurisdictions.

The private bank, housed in a Viennese fin de siècle building as understated as stately, is justifiably proud of its reputation for cultivating an exceptionally close bond with its customers in order to ensure excellence in the delivery of both bespoke services and outcomes that dovetails with the exacting demands placed upon the institution. At this level of distinction, flukes are not tolerated, and superior performance must match consistency in its provision.

Kathrein Privatbank’s proprietary quantitative investment style is defined as a rigorously methodical approach to asset allocation and seeks to unearth opportunities through analytical craftsmanship as opposed to the opportunistic perusal of possibilities.

The judging panel values the bank’s relentless pursuit of operational perfection, a hallmark of Kathrein Privatbank since its inception. The judges also note the bank’s exemplary commitment to integrity and confidentiality. The judging panel is therefore pleased to offer Kathrein Privatbank the 2020 Best Private Banking Solutions Austria Award.
