How a Leading Swiss Bank Brought Private Tech Investing to Private Investors
By Stableton on November 18th, 2025
Client Overview
Swissquote is a leading Swiss bank with over $65 billion in assets under management and a diverse client base of over 650,000, ranging from retail investors to financial intermediaries and institutional clients. Known for its tech-forward, full-service platform, Swissquote constantly seeks innovative products to stay ahead in a highly competitive banking landscape.
The Challenge
Building on its legacy of innovation, Swissquote was actively seeking new avenues to stay ahead of the curve and continue setting itself apart in an increasingly crowded market. The bank needed a forward-looking investment product to attract and retain sophisticated clients while standing out in a crowded field. Most notably, they were searching for a way to offer private market access—something traditionally out of reach for retail investors.
The Solution
Stableton partnered with Swissquote as a launch partner for the Stableton Morningstar PitchBook Unicorn 20 AMC, a note offering exposure to a portfolio of the world’s most valuable private tech companies.
Key aspects of the collaboration included:
A fully digital setup, accessible by all Swissquote clients
Custom-aligned product properties to meet Swissquote’s platform and client needs
Bespoke marketing materials and a dedicated landing page
Webinars and market insights provided by Stableton for Swissquote’s top clients
This marked Swissquote’s first private market offering, establishing them as an innovator in retail-accessible private equity.
