Swiss online banking leader Swissquote welcomes its new Prime Partner for funds ODDO BHF Asset Management, part of financial group ODDO BHF.

ODDO BHF AM is a leading independent asset manager in Europe offering investment solutions in equities, bonds and asset allocation to its institutional clients and distribution partners.

Its proximity to investors and a thorough understanding of their needs are at the heart of its concerns. To do so, it relies on a strong local presence in Europe and in-depth knowledge of the markets it invests in.

Its investment style is characterized by an active and long-term investment approach. ODDO BHF Asset Management places financial and extra-financial analysis at the heart of its investment strategies.

As a pioneer in sustainable investment, the company has been integrating ESG (environmental, social and governance) criteria into its portfolio selection and management processes for more than ten years. Accordingly, it provide clients with a wide range of sustainable financial solutions across all asset classes.

Investment funds have a number of advantages over direct investment in securities. A fund invests in shares, bonds and various other products. Because the risk is spread across a range of investment products, the total risk is reduced.

Somebody who purchases a fund unit can invest in various categories simultaneously using a relatively small amount of money. Modern index funds, also known as ETFs, are directly tied to the performance of an index.

In April, Swissquote welcomed Capital Group to its list of prime partners for funds. Earlier in 2022, Swissquote added Bellevue to its list of prime partners for funds.
