BIL Suisse is a boutique private bank with more than 40 years of history in Switzerland, offering tailor-made wealth management, advisory, investment and lending services. The bank serves high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs, family-owned companies and professional intermediaries across the world.
Under the renewed agreement, BIL Suisse will continue to use the Avaloq platform as its core banking system, delivered in a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model. Avaloq manages the system and infrastructure, including regulatory updates, allowing the bank to scale efficiently while maintaining stable and compliant operations.
Building on Avaloq’s open architecture, the two partners will also collaborate on joint innovation to enable BIL Suisse to securely integrate third-party services. This includes strengthening know-your-customer (KYC) processes and data connectivity, supporting more effective risk management and more seamless data integration across the bank’s ecosystem.
In addition to the Avaloq platform, BIL Suisse will continue to leverage Avaloq’s Banking Operations service, which delivers high levels of straight-through processing (STP). By significantly reducing the need for manual intervention, the service improves back-office efficiency. With expert-led processes and embedded risk and compliance controls, the Banking Operations service provides a resilient backbone that allows BIL Suisse to focus on serving and advising its clients and developing its business.
The partnership renewal reinforces BIL Suisse’s commitment to Switzerland and its ongoing focus on modernizing its operations. With Avaloq’s specialized platform, digital engagement capabilities and comprehensive range of managed services, BIL Suisse is well positioned to deliver a consistently high-quality experience to its clients across both digital and in-person interactions, aligned with its boutique approach.
Tobias Kamber, General Counsel & Chief Operating Officer, BIL Suisse, said: “For more than 40 years, BIL Suisse has served the Swiss market with a deep commitment to tailored service and a boutique approach inspired by the entrepreneurial spirit of our people. Avaloq has been a key partner on this journey, providing the technology that streamlines and enhances our front-, middle- and back-office operations. We value this long-standing collaboration and the important role it plays in our digital transformation, helping us deliver the seamless, high-quality experience our clients expect.”
Christian Haux, Managing Director for Switzerland and Liechtenstein at Avaloq, said: “This renewal builds on a partnership that has enhanced BIL Suisse’s operations over many years. Looking ahead, we will work closely with BIL Suisse to advance the bank’s digital transformation, delivering higher levels of automation and supporting a high‑quality client experience. We thank BIL Suisse for their continued trust and look forward to continuing to serve as their partner for core banking and back-office operations.”
