About us
Audere Invest SA is a financial advisory firm based in Lugano that addresses private, institutional and corporate clients to provide assistance in investment decisions and in the structuring of corporate and family business.
Our advisors are registered in the register of Swiss financial advisors RegFix.
ASSET MANAGEMENT
In the field of asset management, Audere Invest is primarily an advisor to banks and asset managers to whom it provides a wide range of investment strategies. These strategies are applied both within investment funds, through actively managed certificates (AMCs) and through structured products.
Example
Audere Invest is currently the advisor of a number of actively managed certificates (AMCs) listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange and the Milan Stock Exchange, which implement investment strategies based on the gold index, major stock indices and oil with the aim of producing 'market neutral' results, i.e. decoupled from the general market trend.
FAMILY BUSINESS CONSULTING
Thanks to a network of well-established relationships with banks, asset management companies, trust companies, tax advisors and lawyers, Audere intervenes in several critical aspects of the family business, including asset protection, the creation of new corporate vehicles, corporate restructuring, business internationalisation, the establishment of trusts and foundations as well as corporate treasury optimisation.
INVESTMENT CLUB
The activity of investment evaluation and contact with institutional players allows us to select investment opportunities in which we act primarily as investors with the aim of sharing these investments with our partners and clients. This activity is carried out through investment clubs for financial, commercial and industrial transactions of which we are promoters.
