Lombard Odier

With more than 220 years of experience, Lombard Odier is a seventh-generation family business specialising in asset management and wealth preservation.

Tradition and innovation have been the key factors in its longevity. Constantly rethinking the world, showing imagination and welcoming change as an opportunity have allowed Lombard Odier to offer inventive solutions, closely aligned to the needs and ambitions of its clients.

Throughout its history, the bank has been deeply committed to the values that guide the transmission of family wealth to future generations, such as responsibility, long-term commitment and a desire for excellence.

The FBN NxG Lombard Odier Award, as well as the associated projects FBN NxG Entrepreneurship Day and FBN NxG International Summit, are a natural extension of these principles. Created to support innovative initiatives devised by the next generation of family entrepreneurs, the programme is built on the basis of criteria such as innovation, feasibility, sustainability and communication.

Lombard Odier, true to its Rethink Everything philosophy and aware of the importance of innovation in a constantly changing world, encourages future leaders of family business to make their own pioneering work a reality.

At PwC, our purpose is “to build trust in society and solve important problems.” This includes supporting socio-economic stability in a world where disruption and radical change are happening at unprecedented speed. Family-owned businesses embody the stability we’re committed to supporting. Acting as the backbone of economies and societies worldwide, family businesses have been generating more employment and economic output than any other type of commercial organisation. That’s why maintaining the success and continuity of family businesses like yours is key to a sustainable future – and lies at the heart of our purpose. And it’s why our mission is to help your family businesses grow, prosper and professionalise, while also ensuring continuity for future generations. The COVID 19 pandemic has severely challenged the attributes that give family businesses a competitive edge. The ability to survive and prepare for the “new normal” is critical to the future of your family, your business and all the people who rely on it. We are working tirelessly at reviewing our approaches and finding new ways to support your business and family to reinvent together your future success. With more than 160 years of experience and 5,000 people dedicated to serving family businesses globally, we are able to gain strong insights into what goes on. And we hope that thanks to our partnership with FBN, we will be able to pass those on to all their members worldwide to support their growth and legacy.
