ASCIB
The Association of Swiss Commercial and Investment Banks was founded on 30 January 1981.
Its main aims are as follows:
- to give its members a voice in matters of banking policy
- to represent its members’ shared interests in the governing bodies and committees of the Swiss Bankers Association
- to play a part in shaping political opinion
The Association comprises 30 banks and represents their interests (end 2007). With some 13,000 staff between them, these banks account for a tenth of the overall Swiss banking workforce and generate cash flow totalling CHF 3.5 billion. They have assets under management worth CHF 960 billion.
All commercial banks and banks specialising in securities dealing and asset management that are Swiss-controlled and operate under Swiss law may join the Association, as may Liechtenstein banks. Membership of the Swiss Bankers Association is a prerequisite.
The Association is represented on the Swiss Bankers Association’s Board of Directors and the Committee of the Board of Directors as well as on 60 other banking-sector bodies. ©
