IHAG Privatbank throughout the ages
IHAG Privatbank was founded 75 years ago as an independent Swiss bank and has ever since been owned by a family with a long tradition of entrepreneurship and a strong commitment to the company. We are proud of our enduring history. Tradition, independence and entrepreneurial spirit are values that have characterised us in the past, distinguish us today and will become even more important in the future.
