Success Story Vontobel

This page will give you an insight into the collaboration between Vontobel and aixigo AG.

The challenge: A new dimension of wealth management for customers

Vontobel sought to make its investment expertise available to customers digitally. Customers should benefit from a new dimension of wealth management that allows them to actively shape their portfolio. A solution that offers a unique customer experience and intuitive usability. Prior to this challenge, aixigo had already successfully developed MARS®, an investment advisory solution, together with Vontobel.

Just like MARS®, the new solution for digital wealth management was intended to underline the expertise of the Swiss investment house. It ought to be a contemporary solution combining both service and security for the customer.

The result: The first active digital wealth management solution in Switzerland!

With its API-based high-performance Wealth Management Platform, aixigo has provided the basis for solving these challenges. The result is the Swiss investment house's new digital wealth management service, "volt®".  volt® by Vontobel is the first active digital wealth management solution in Switzerland!

Roger Erdt
Head of Private Clients Platform at Vontobel

„The numerous recognitions that volt by Vontobel has received show that we are indeed able to successfully innovate and digitise wealth management. The aixigo platform is an important building block in this.“

Christian Friedrich
CSO at aixigo AG

"We are delighted that with Vontobel, we have been able to assist an innovative and future-oriented customer in the digitisation of wealth management and investment advisory services. After winning the "Banking IT-Innovation Award" from the University of St. Gallen, we have now, with our customer Vontobel, set another important milestone for aixigo in the Swiss market."
