    Swiss Private Bankers Association

    Private banks are among the oldest banks in Switzerland. They have the legal form of individually owned firms, collective and limited partnerships. Private bankers are subject to unlimited liability with their personal assets. Their field of activity is asset management, chiefly for private clients. As a rule, the private banks do not publicly offer to accept savings deposits.
