LGT received accolades at two major industry awards. At the prestigious WealthBriefing European Awards 2026, the bank won in the External Asset Management Platform & Offering category. At the Euromoney Private Banking Awards 2026, it was named World’s Best Pure Play/Boutique Private Bank. The awards highlight the bank’s strength in the European intermediaries business and underline its standing as a leading international private banking group.
The WealthBriefing European Awards are presented annually to recognise excellence and innovation in the wealth management industry. This year, LGT won the External Asset Management Platform & Offering category for its forward-thinking collaboration with external asset managers. In its report, the WealthBriefing jury stated: "LGT combines the stability of a family-run business with three decades of intermediary expertise, innovative technology, proven expertise in sustainable investing and exclusive access to alternative investments."
"In the intermediary business, the greatest value is created when technology and human expertise are combined", says Markus Werner, Member of the Executive Board and Head Intermediary Business at LGT Bank Ltd. "Digital solutions and AI-powered tools help us deliver our services more efficiently and at an even higher level. However, personal, trust-based interaction, and a deep understanding of the individual circumstances and specific needs of intermediaries and their clients remain at the heart of our approach. The WealthBriefing award is an important endorsement of our work and encourages us to keep evolving our offering."
At the Euromoney Private Banking Awards 2026, LGT was named World’s Best Pure Play/Boutique Private Bank. The award reflects LGT’s profile as a specialised, internationally focused private bank with high-quality advice, a clear position and a consistent commitment to further developing its offering.
"For decades, our owner family has stood for continuity and long-term thinking and actions; that sense of responsibility continues to shape our identity as a private bank", says Olivier de Perregaux, CEO LGT Private Banking. "At the same time, we continuously refine our advisory and product offering so that we can support our clients with modern, high-quality solutions in a rapidly changing environment – across market cycles and generations."
