Investments for foundations and institutional clients

Do you have to invest assets for others? We look forward to establishing a dialogue with you.

Are you investing assets for a foundation, a church or a church-related institution? For example, are you acting on behalf of a health insurance fund, chamber of commerce, insurance company, association, pension fund or university? Our specialists advise and support you in all matters relating to investment.

As long-standing banking partners of many institutional investors, we know: this field has its own special requirements, but they also differ again for each individual client. Therefore, we work with you to develop a solution tailored to your individual needs that will lead your organisation into the future in the best possible way.

Our guiding principle is to think and act for the long term.

Investing assets for an institution carries a lot of responsibility. After all, the consequences of one's own decisions have to be borne by others, usually future generations. We are acutely aware of this responsibility and consistently focus our recommendations on the long-term success of your institution or foundation.

Our services are comprehensive and highly specialised.

We offer solutions, not products.

The criteria are solely your institution’s requirements and needs. Therefore, we recommend to you, in accordance with the 'Best Select Approach', only tailor-made investments that we consider to be objectively the best in the market.

We advise you on all asset classes.

We believe the best possible solution entails intelligent diversification. Thus, we provide you with comprehensive advice, covering shares, bonds, real estate and private equity, among others.

We will assist you in drawing up your foundation statutes and investment guideline.

The purpose of the institution sets the direction: we help you to implement your guidelines in the best possible way.

We can also offer you instruments such as a master KVG or special funds.

You can benefit from this offer, according to the size and complexity of your institution.

We provide you with networks and international platforms.

We can provide you with valuable specialist knowledge that we gathered through our work for a wide range of institutions and foundations. Benefit from our in-house contacts as well as from access to ABN AMRO, our global network.

We consider ourselves to be a source of inspiration.

We work on your behalf. Alongside your very specific expectations, we will advise you above and beyond daily business and bring new aspects and ideas to the table - always with the interests of your institution or foundation in mind.

Institutions and foundations in particular have a high demand for sustainable investments. You can rest assured that our sustainable recommendations meet the most stringent requirements owing to our high-calibre external Sustainability Advisory Board. The Sustainability Advisory Board is guided by the ESG criteria introduced by the United Nations in 2004. Corporate governance, social and environmental responsibility are assessed according to these standards.
