Knowledge meets Family - Business Values

As technology continues to change the face of banking, demand for innovative, personalised services is on the rise
Christian P. Maurer is the Founder and Managing Director of Gotthard Consulting.
He established Gotthard Consulting with the aim of focusing on a holistic approach when it comes to managing clients’ wealth and family assets and to providing family office solutions. His clients trust his advice and judgement and he always strives to find the best solution for them.
Chris has experience establishing and managing family and investment offices for international clients in Zug, Switzerland. Additionally, he led a financial joint-venture in Bahrain, serving as president of the board and CEO. Presently, he remains engaged as an independent advisor, providing strategic guidance to owners.
As a former senior private banker, Chris has decades of experience in managing all aspects of UHNWIs from the Middle East. His international experience has taught him a unique blend of innovative thinking coupled with a refreshing approach to traditional values.
"I grew up in the world of international diplomacy following my father who was a senior Swiss diplomat and I have resided in Bahrain, Germany, Poland, Thailand, UAE and UK before settling back in my native Switzerland. This has given me a creative approach to problem solving, providing my clients with custom made solutions based on their very particular needs."
"I have worked at large multi-national banks such as Deutsche Bank and Credit Suisse as well as in private banks including Bank Sarasin where I was responsible for developing, acquiring, managing and advising UHNWI clients and their family offices. Some of those loyal clients are still on my books today, over 25 years later."
"This global experience has enabled me to understand a broad range of products, asset classes and investment strategies based on diverse client needs, especially in Middle Eastern markets. It has also sharpened my attention to detail. I am Swiss after all. Precision is in my DNA."
