With our extensive investment expertise, we are meeting the increased need of our clients for information and guiding them securely through the crisis

The most important goal of the world community is to stop the spread of the virus, which includes the determination to take the measures necessary in order to safeguard the life and health of as many people as possible. The efforts that we have to make for this purpose demand a great deal from all of us. Our freedom of movement has been limited, in some cases severely, and the coronavirus crisis is having an ever greater impact on the economy and society. The economy in many countries has been brought to a virtual standstill, which is dragging down the global capital markets.

At the moment, events on the international financial markets are happening in quick succession, and current information has only a very short lifespan. In this situation, we would like to meet your increased need for information and support you with regular investment expertise. Therefore, in the coming days and weeks, we will be posting current information on our website that has been prepared by VP Bank investment specialists about the impact that the coronavirus is having on the financial markets. In order to enable you to keep track of developments, we have compiled the most important information, backgrounds and estimates for you in a clear and succinct way: newsroom#Coronavirus

As an intermediary and private bank with decades of experience, we have already guided our clients through many crises. In this regard, client proximity and a high level of support are important factors for success. Particularly in phases of high uncertainty, investors look for navigational assistance. For this reason, our client advisors – particularly in these times of social distancing – are in close contact with their clients.

Since the founding of our bank more than 60 years ago, we have always viewed our main task to be safely managing the assets of our clients, and this is also our core competence. As in the past, you can continue to rely today on your VP Bank as a solid partner.

We thank you for your trust and wish you all the best for the coming weeks. Stay healthy.

Yours faithfully

VP Bank AG
