“ G&M Zen AG is a firm that was born by the desire of offering services to clients who are more than clients: they become friends and, on the base of this trust and friendship, the services spin off. ”
The firm started in the past century as a one-man offer in Asia and more precisely in Hong Kong where the founder lived and still extensively travels to.
The passion of discovery, understanding and being part of the dynamic changes of the world fundamentals has always been at the center of his life.
The understanding of different social environments and the opportunity of precolating them stochastically to deliver a different, always up to date vision of the financial world is a fundamental gene in the DNA of the firm and definitely in mine as a person.
I believe I have been able to transfer to the new generation that is now part of the firm, in this exciting moment of growth, the same desire and passion. We are moving towards a new era, maintaining the same principles and making them stronger.
In terms of the activity that we carry on daily, the idea has been to offer a holistic multifamily office service, approachable by all size of wealthy families that have a need to preserve and transfer their wealth through generation.
