Our customers, our missions
Like a forgotten riverbed or a silent canyon, unclaimed bank assets sometimes leave an invisible trail across the financial landscape. For banks, these situations raise legal, ethical and reputational issues.
Our services enable our institutional clients to anticipate the consequences and challenges associated with the pre-publication period defined by the December 16, 2015 revision of the Federal Banking Act.
Banks have a duty of care to investigate inactive accounts, even in the event of the holder’s disappearance or death.
Failure to comply with this principle may result in regulatory sanctions,
or even contractual liability.
Legal basis
- Federal Law and Ordinance on Banks and Savings Banks (RS 952.0 ET 952.01)
- Guidelines for the processing of dormant and non-contact assets at Swiss banks (Narilo Guidelines) SBA .01.07.2022)
- Agreement on the Swiss banks' code of conduct with regard to the exercise of due diligence 2016
- Circ. FINMA 18/3 "Outsourcing - banks and insurers".
Insufficient or passive handling of unclaimed assets represents a major reputational risk for banks. This risk can lead to a loss of trust, increased regulatory pressure and lasting damage to brand image. It is therefore in the strategic interest of banks to put in place proactive, ethical and transparent systems to identify and return these assets to their rightful claimants.
