Founded in Chiasso in 2000, Ebco Group has grown from a Swiss fiduciary practice into an integrated independent group.
Ebco Trustee Services was established in 2004 to meet growing demand for succession and estate structuring, and subsequently expanded into asset management, obtaining its FINMA licence and SEC registration.
Since January 2026, the group has been authorised to serve UK professional clients under the CH-UK Mutual Recognition Agreement.
The group maintains broad working relationships with banks and financial intermediaries across Switzerland and internationally, allowing us to act in our clients’ best interest across custody, execution and structuring arrangements.
Ticino sits at the heart of one of Europe’s most active cross-border corridors — Italian-speaking yet fully Swiss, and directly accessible from Milan Malpensa. It offers the legal certainty and regulatory standards of Switzerland in an environment that feels natural to internationally mobile clients from across Europe and beyond.
Ebco has been based in Chiasso since its founding, giving the firm deep familiarity with the cross-border dynamics that define this region and the clients who choose it.
Our clients include wealthy individuals seeking independent portfolio management, families with cross-border estates and succession needs, entrepreneurs restructuring their affairs, and internationally mobile professionals looking for a single point of coordination across investment, tax and trust.
What they have in common is a need for coordinated, conflict-free advice across investment, tax and structure.
