HSBC Private Bank and the Menuhin Festival Gstaad
Menuhin Festival Gstaad: celebrating 10 years of partnership
HSBC Private Bank is celebrating its tenth season as the principal sponsor of the Menuhin Festival Gstaad. Also partner of the Gstaad Yacht Club, the bank has a branch in the centre of Gstaad’s village, a tangible sign of the commitment to be the leading international bank present in the Saanenland area.
“The combination of reason and heart has guided us during the many years of growth of our activities in Switzerland”, explains Alexandre Zeller, CEO. “The Festival and HSBC Private Bank live in harmony and are evolving together. Christoph Müller’s choices are remarkable and we fully support his vision of bringing together established artists with upcoming talented musicians. Music is a universal language that promotes social interaction by providing the occasion to share privileged, lasting moments with our clients. Switzerland is the centre of the world for Private Banking and we take advantage of the presence of the HSBC group throughout the world by collaborating with international enterprises that have placed part of their funds under our administration here. Gstaad is an important harbour in a world that is undergoing constant transformation. We hope that all music lovers will take advantage of one of these rare and privileged concert moments.”
