The entity, with its majority stakes owned by LGT Group, has a headcount of over 200 in India.

“By working closely together, we can draw on our varied skills and knowledge, allowing us to treat each portfolio individually and meet the unique needs of every client.”

In another development, LGT announced its return to Germany with a new private banking office in Hamburg.

Following receipt of necessary approvals, a 15-member team of private banking experts have been roped in to build the business in the region.

Once ready, the office will provide German clients access to LGT’s wide range of products and services including wealth planning, real estate financing, impact investments and alternative investments.

LGT chairman HSH Prince Max von und zu Liechtenstein said: “Germany is one of the largest private banking markets in Europe. It is therefore logical for us to be present there.”
