The new private banking platform of Vontobel is available worldwide.

A new online private banking platform provided by Vontobel, the Switzerland-headquartered private bank and investments house, has gone global.

Vontobel Mobile Private Banking, which can be used in any part of the world, gives clients access to portfolios and accounts, as well as research from the firm's investment banking capability.

The system replaces Vontobel’s existing e-banking platform and can be used on desktop and laptop computers.

Among recent developments at Vontobel, its asset management arm in August appointed Naohiko Tabei as executive director, institutional clients and consultant relations, as part of a drive to grow its business in Japan. Based in Hong Kong, Tabei is responsible for managing relationships with financial institutions, consultants and developing new distribution partnerships.
