Independent asset managers: from custody to holistic wealth management

In an interview published by Sphere on July 15, 2026, Jérôme Sicard speaks with Carel Huber, Global Head Independent Asset Managers at Mirabaud Group, about the profound changes reshaping the independent asset manager landscape and the opportunities emerging for the sector.

The independent asset manager landscape is evolving rapidly. Rising costs, tighter regulation and changing client expectations are reshaping the industry, while the traditional custody model is giving way to a broader wealth management proposition centred on advice, planning and value-added services.

In this interview, Carel Huber explains how Mirabaud is responding to these shifts by positioning independent asset managers as a strategic growth priority. Combining wealth planning, investment advisory, private assets, digital innovation and international expertise, the Group is building a comprehensive ecosystem designed to help partners grow their businesses and better serve families and entrepreneurs.

As the sector continues to consolidate, those that will thrive are likely to be firms capable of combining specialised expertise, technological excellence and a truly holistic approach to wealth management.
