Foundations face an increasingly challenging environment

Credit Suisse: Amid a difficult economic environment, foundations are likewise unable to avoid factors such as low interest rates and the resulting detrimental effect on their investment income as well as on the sustainability of their activities. Asset management is therefore accorded special attention. “Having the right investment strategy is more essential than ever to ensure foundations can maintain their activities and optimize their impact,” says Isabelle von Jeinsen, Head of the Competence Center Charitable Foundations at Credit Suisse. “For a long time, many charitable foundations tended to take a fairly passive approach to asset management. It is only due to challenging circumstances that awareness of a more active, progressive approach to financial matters has developed. We seek to build trusting relationships with our clients, with the emphasis not only on financial expertise but also on shared values and a common vision.”

Credit Suisse: A long-standing tradition in philanthropy

Credit Suisse: Credit Suisse has been committed to charitable foundations for over 20 years. Thanks to the many years of experience and expertise of its in-house specialists, the bank is ideally positioned to help foundations pursue their goals in an optimum manner. Launched in 2019, the Competence Center Charitable Foundations is a key element of the bank’s philanthropy offering and supports founders as well as trustees throughout a foundation’s life cycle. In collaboration with other experts within the bank, the team works to further develop Credit Suisse’s position in this area.
