Wealth & Liquidity · 💎 Private Banker

Une résolution de dividende de CHF 10M vient d'être publiée. Cette fortune se déplace quelque part.

Corporate liquidity events — dividend resolutions, founder exits, capital distributions — create high-net-worth clients overnight. These entrepreneurs are not browsing private banking websites. They are making decisions in a narrow window, usually in conversation with whoever reaches them first. Private bankers who call in the days after the SHAB notice win mandates. Those who wait find the wealth already placed.

The timing advantage

Be the first to know. Be the first to call.

Private banking relationships are not won through brochures or referral networks alone — they are won in the conversation that happens immediately after a liquidity event. The SHAB publishes those events publicly, daily. The private banker who reads it first has a genuine head start on every competitor in the market.

1
Liquidity events create acute decision pressure

Une résolution de dividende ou la sortie d'un fondateur ne donne pas à un entrepreneur des mois pour décider où va sa fortune. Optimisation fiscale, questions de dépôt, mandats de gestion — ces décisions se concentrent en quelques semaines. Un banquier privé qui appelle pendant cette fenêtre résout un problème actif. Celui qui appelle plus tard propose ses services pour un problème déjà résolu.

2
The first conversation sets the relationship frame

Whoever reaches a newly liquid entrepreneur first gets to frame the relationship as advisory rather than transactional. Arriving after a competitor has already had that conversation means you are pitching against an established frame — and the incumbent has a structural advantage even if their offering is inferior.

3
Leadership changes surface new wealth decisions

An executive appointment often comes with share grants, deferred compensation, or a signing package that creates immediate private wealth management needs. A newly promoted CFO or incoming CEO at a sizeable Swiss company is a high-probability private banking prospect — and the SHAB publishes those appointments the day they are registered.

Your signals

Which SHAB events matter for Private Bankers

Two SHAB event types reliably indicate fresh liquidity or a change in personal wealth circumstances. Both create a narrow window where an early private banking conversation can determine where assets are placed for years.

💰 Capital Increase
HIGH SIGNAL
Une augmentation de capital publiée — notamment celle impliquant une résolution de dividende ou une distribution aux actionnaires — signifie que les fondateurs et les dirigeants reçoivent directement des liquidités. Ce n'est pas une conversation de banque d'entreprise ; c'est une conversation de gestion de patrimoine personnel. L'avis SHAB mentionne l'entreprise et le montant de la résolution, vous offrant un motif précis et vérifiable pour prendre contact dans les jours qui suivent.
👤 Leadership Change
HIGH SIGNAL
Un cadre dirigeant nouvellement nommé dans une entreprise suisse de taille moyenne à grande est un prospect à fort potentiel pour le private banking. Les packages de signature, les attributions d'actions et la rémunération accrue soulèvent immédiatement des questions de gestion de patrimoine — et ce nouveau cadre n'a pas encore de relation de private banking établie dans cet établissement. Il est ouvert à une première conversation d'une manière qu'un client existant ne l'est pas.
Real scenario
Capital Distribution — Vantage AG in Zurich — Day 1 vs Day 30

Une holding zurichoise adopte une résolution de dividende de CHF 4.2M. Le SHAB la publie. L'actionnaire fondateur réfléchit désormais activement à l'affectation de ce capital. La suite dépend entièrement de qui appelle en premier.

8:04 AM
The SHAB publishes. Capital distribution resolution for Vantage AG — CHF 4.2M dividend declared to founding shareholders.
8:15 AM
Your Founders & Movers brief lands. Private Banker score: 94. AI angle attached — custody structure, tax-efficient placement, wealth mandate framing.
9:30 AM
You reach out the week of the capital event. The entrepreneur has fresh liquidity and is actively thinking about where to put it. You're the first private banker to have the conversation.
Day 30
Their current retail bank has already offered a private banking upgrade. A competitor approached them at a dinner. The relationship formed without you.
Why the window closes

Day 1 vs Day 30 — the difference is the deal

Best case
Day 1 — You call today
  • The founder is in the middle of deciding where the liquidity goes — your call lands inside the decision, not after it
  • No private bank has been formally introduced yet; you have first-mover position before incumbents act
  • You can reference the specific resolution amount and structure your approach around their actual situation — this signals intelligence, not cold prospecting
  • Une conversation de 20 minutes cette semaine peut initier un mandat qui se renforce sur une décennie
Worst case
Day 30 — You call next month
  • Their retail bank has already escalated the relationship to a private banking team and offered a managed mandate
  • A well-connected competitor was introduced at a dinner or through a mutual contact — the first conversation already happened
  • The wealth has been placed, at least provisionally — switching requires effort the prospect has no reason to make
  • Your outreach looks like every other cold pitch — no timing, no context, no reason to respond
Reach out with reason

Not "I help companies like yours." A specific reason to call.

SHAB events give you a real, specific, verifiable reason to reach out. That changes the conversation from cold outreach to warm intelligence — and it changes the reply rate from near zero to genuinely competitive.

❌ Generic cold outreach
Subject: Private banking for entrepreneurs and executives

Hi,

I work with successful entrepreneurs and executives on private wealth management. If you're looking for a more personalised approach to your financial affairs, I'd welcome a confidential conversation.

Best regards

Subject: Vantage AG — capital resolution, worth a brief conversation?

Noticed Vantage AG passed a dividend resolution for CHF 4.2M last week. When fresh liquidity arrives at that level, the first decision — where it sits and in what structure — often has implications for years. I work with a small number of Swiss entrepreneurs specifically on that first conversation. Happy to keep it short and completely without obligation.
