A financial intermediary is an individual or company that serves as a link between a client and the financial system. This may include investment advisors, wealth managers, fiduciaries, notaries, or insurance brokers. Their role is to help manage, invest, transfer, or safeguard financial assets.
Engaging a financial intermediary gives you access to professional advice, helps you avoid costly mistakes, and saves you time. It also opens the door to investment opportunities, wealth management services, or financing solutions that might otherwise be out of reach.
There are several types:
Wealth management: advisory or direct management of your assets
Credit intermediation: sourcing and negotiating loans or mortgages
Tax and estate planning: optimizing taxes and organizing your assets
Insurance: finding the best coverage for your needs
Fiduciary services: accounting, company formation, and more
It’s advisable when making major financial decisions—like investments, inheritance planning, or real estate purchases—or when you want to optimize your tax or estate situation. It’s also highly recommended for self-employed individuals and SMEs.
Choose a professional affiliated with a recognized supervisory body (such as FINMA or a self-regulatory organization like ARIF, SO-FIT, etc.). Check their credentials and authorizations, and be sure to discuss fees in advance. Personal referrals are also a trusted way to find reliable service.
