Alpadis protects the value you value

In 2005, a small team of seasoned wealth planning experts set up an independent, privately-owned group in Switzerland. 
That was the beginning of the Alpadis story.

Since then, we’ve consistently delivered the Swiss standard of services across multiple Asian countries and the UAE. Our international clients trust us for our enhanced cross-border capabilities

We take immense pride in being a truly independent fiduciary services provider. That’s why we’ve handpicked the best Certified Public Accountants, Company Secretaries, Lawyers and Tax Advisers to maximise success for our clients.

Our clients include businesses, entrepreneurs, business owners, High Net Worth Individuals (HNWIs) and their family offices.
