The opening adds to the private banking group's footprint across the Alpine state.

Bordier & Cie, a Geneva-headquartered private bank, has opened a new office in Lausanne, at Avenue Mon-Repos 22. 

Cyril Saulnier (pictured below) leads the team and is assisted by Daniel Moret. They will manage a 12-strong team.

“This new office will strengthen our roots in the Lake Geneva region, allowing us to serve our locally-based clients, whose drive and rigorous expectations we greatly value – while remaining true to our values of proximity, unwavering independence and excellence,” Grégoire Bordier, senior managing partner, said in a statement yesterday. 

Saulnier brings extensive leadership experience to the role. Previously, he was a private banking key accounts VIP advisor at Banque Cantonale Vaudoise, an executive director and team leader for Suisse Romande at Vontobel, and head of the Geneva branch for Notenstein La Roche Banque Privée. Saulner was also active as a senior manager at Wegelin. Prior to that he was section leader for key clients at BCV, after beginning his career at Union Bank of Switzerland as an RM for a Middle East client book. 

A graduate in politics from the University of Lausanne, Saulnier holds an MBA with a focus on project management from the University of Geneva. His industry qualifications include AZEK CFPI and CWMA SAQ.

“At Bordier, there’s no such thing as a ‘small client’. In an industry moving increasingly towards standardisation, we believe every client’s wealth deserves meticulous attention and solutions tailored to their objectives, whether we are structuring an initial investment portfolio or securing a family estate across several generations,” Saulnier said. 

In Switzerland, Bordier & Cie has offices in Geneva, Bern, Nyon, Zurich – and now Lausanne. It is also present in France, the UK, Singapore, the Turks and Caicos Islands and Uruguay.
