LGT awarded for philanthropy offerings
LGT has received multiple awards at the first edition of the Wealth for Good Awards. The private bank was selected as the best philanthropy provider by the jury of the magazine WealthBriefing. “LGT impressed us with its global network and local partnerships as well as its effective processes and high level of commitment - it truly deserves to win this award”, the WealthBriefing jury explains in the LGT press release.
With its Philanthropy Advisory team, the bank supports its owner, the Princely Family of Liechtenstein, in “optimally setting up their philanthropic commitment, doing good in the right way and making a positive contribution to the development of society and the environment”, comments Olivier de Perregaux, CEO of LGT Private Banking.
Moreover, WealthBriefing selected LGT as the bank with the best Impact Offering. One of the reasons cited by the jury was that LGT grants its clients exclusive access to the offerings of its impact investor sister company Lightrock.
Furthermore, LGT also claimed the title of Thought Leader for Sustainability and ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) in the Asia-Pacific region. The bank’s profound specialist knowledge and the wide range of sustainable investment solutions make it possible for LGT customers to “address environmental and social challenges while generating financial returns”, Perregaux explains. For this reason, LGT sees this award as confirmation that it is “on the right track”.
