Lausanne is a natural hub for Mirabaud: ideally situated at the heart of the Lake Geneva region, the capital of Vaud offers immediate reach across the whole of French-speaking Switzerland – from the canton of Vaud to Valais, via Fribourg and the Jura. With a dense network of entrepreneurs, investors and high-net-worth families, it is the ideal base from which to serve a discerning regional clientele.
A senior team, deeply rooted in the economic fabric of French-speaking Switzerland
From the moment it opens, the Lausanne office will be supported by a dedicated local team comprising experienced private bankers with deep roots in the canton of Vaud. It will be headed by Louis Fauchier-Magnan, Equity Partner, Head of Wealth Management in French-speaking Switzerland and a representative of the seventh generation of Mirabaud’s founding family, backed by Pascal Meilland, Team Leader and Director. The team will be gradually strengthened through the recruitment of new talent from the region.
A service offering tailored to the needs of Clients in Romandy
Beyond traditional wealth management, the Lausanne office will offer a range of services tailored to the specific challenges of the region:
• Wealth and estate planning – long-term wealth structuring, taking into account the specificities of the Swiss tax system;
• Pension provision – optimisation of the 2nd and 3rd pillars (in particular the 1e, vested benefits and 3a accounts), top-ups and retirement planning with bespoke solutions for senior executives and the self-employed;
• Private Equity – drawing on a network built up over decades of investment in the real economy, Mirabaud offers its Clients privileged access to selective club deals as well as a selection of specialist managers ranked among the best in their field, in both Swiss Venture Capital and Private Equity. This commitment is also evident on the ground: Mirabaud supports EPFL’s Seed Night and the Blaze programme, two initiatives that embody the entrepreneurial dynamism of French-speaking Switzerland, of which the Group aims to be a natural partner.
This offering reflects Mirabaud’s philosophy: bespoke advice, based on a lasting relationship of trust and a complete alignment of interests, far removed from standardised approaches.
Commenting on the opening of Mirabaud’s office in Lausanne, Louis Fauchier-Magnan, Head of Wealth Management in French-speaking Switzerland, said: “This opening is a natural continuation of our development. It reflects our desire to be ever closer to our Clients and to support them consistently and to the highest standards, in a spirit of long-term partnership. We look forward to forging new relationships in this region and actively contributing to its economic vitality.”
