Banca del Sempione’s mission to serve its clients and explore new opportunities and trading possibilities for them was furthered in early 2000 with the opening of Banca del Sempione (Overseas), domiciled in Nassau, Bahamas and wholly-owned by the Swiss parent.

This Caribbean country and especially Nassau are today one of the world’s major financial centres with around 400 banks. Because of its constantly updated infrastructure and highly restrictive anti-money laundering regulations, over time it has earned the reputation of being the Switzerland of the Caribbean. Evidence of the effort made is the fact that the country and the banking industry in particular are no longer on the OECD black list.

Banca del Sempione (Overseas) has been able to participate in this context and today it is an independent operation within the Group, with a deep commitment to asset management and the offer of financial and estate planning services. Over the years, the Nassau branch has acquired the skills that have enabled it to play the precious role of advisor in the selection of outside managers for the group’s SICAV, BASE INVESTMENTS, for years present in Luxembourg.

The future task of Banca del Sempione (Overseas) will also be to deepen its presence in the Hedge Fund industry to give the Group the indispensable tools to serve its top clients. Its status as privileged observer will allow the Nassau branch to also take on a leading role in business development in South America, and at the same time take advantage of its proximity to the US market to propose and monitor asset management operations through asset allocation initiatives.
