Journal

April 2023 - In addition to being Switzerland’s most important financial centre, Zurich also offers a rich cultural and social life.

Our ties to Zurich are also firmly anchored in our bank’s corporate culture and values. In this edition of Maerki Baumann’s “Journal” magazine, Chairman of the Board of Directors Hans Syz provides an insight into the world of guilds that he was born into.
