History

The company was founded in 1993 by Matthias Reinhart and Max Bolanz as VZ VersicherungsZentrum AG. Their aim was to bring transparency to the insurance and banking industries in Switzerland. The initial purpose of the company included the brokerage of insurance contracts.

Subsequently, the range of services was continuously expanded. In 1997, the company’s name was changed to VZ VermögensZentrum AG, and the articles of association were amended. Since then, the focus shifted from brokerage to financial consulting and asset management.

In 2000, a holding structure was introduced. In March 2007, the subsidiary VZ Depository Bank Ltd was authorised as a bank and securities dealer by the Swiss Federal Banking Commission.[2] In the same month, VZ Holding Ltd went public.[3]

VZ Vorsorge Ltd was founded in 2013 as a wholly owned subsidiary of VZ Holding. The unit provides services such as consultancy, administration and management for investment funds, pension funds and occupational benefit schemes.[4]
