Philosophy
A proven independence
In concentrating exclusively on portfolio management, Notz Stucki has always fiercely guarded its independence. It is a founding principle that has ensured almost half a century of development. It keeps the Group free from conflicts of interest and allows a continuous alignment with the clients’ objectives.
Identifying the best talents
Knowing that no company can excel in every field, Notz Stucki is continually seeking out the best managers and the best funds to achieve the best returns.
A reliable partner
Taking a long-term perspective, Notz Stucki sees its client relationships as a partnership. That is why the time given to meeting and exchanging information is of major importance to both sides. It allows a maximum understanding of the parameters and processes related to the investment.
Offering made-to-measure solutions
As part of its commitment and long-term support, Notz Stucki sets itself clear objectives that respond to clients’ needs. The Directors and managers invest their clients’ assets alongside their own. Thus the clients enjoy exactly the same degree of care and expertise.
To accomplish the Group’s mission, the managers concentrate on the following priorities:
- preservation of capital
- long-term investment
- asset allocation according to risk profile
- a top-down and bottom-up investment approach
- performance objectives that are absolute rather than relative
To build a relationship on solid ground, mutual trust is vital. That is why frequent meetings and total transparency are the two keys to future success.
The symbolism of the giraffe
Majestic and sleek, the giraffe has developed many abilities that demonstrate an acute awareness of its environment and the skill to master it. For Notz Stucki, it symbolizes the qualities that an investment manager must have. That is why we have chosen to use it.
A higher point of view. Wisdom and strategic height allow the giraffe to have a total view and to make a deep analysis of the world around it.
A serene strength. Despite danger, the giraffe displays a supreme calmness, knowing the most opportune moment to make a decision.
A pragmatic strategy. Thanks to its size, the giraffe alone has access to the high leaves, letting it choose a unique source of nutrition.
A team spirit. A group forms around the most worldly wise and experienced giraffe. This giraffe inspires trust in the others, never sowing seeds of doubt or fear.
A solid footing. The giraffe’s four long legs give it immense stability and a firm grounding in its environment.
A sense of continuity. Even when it is young, the giraffe can see a long way. It has no need to react, it can anticipate everything and act accordingly as it develops its strengths and qualities.
