Family office specialist Accuro has opened an office in Zurich, which will be led by Kripa Sethuraman as Head of Family Office.
The firm says its expansion in Switzerland is a response to growing demand among international families with cross-border assets for complex and value-added trust services driven by tax transparency and a fast-changing regulatory environment.
Accuro aims to diversify into non-fiduciary services by supporting wealth owners, family office executives and their advisers with asset reporting, administration and consolidation, and risk and project management.
Kripa joined the firm from Quilvest Switzerland family office, and was previously a Managing Partner at the Family Office Exchange.
She has worked with global wealth owners and advisers on issues, ranging from governance and succession planning, to structuring and organisational best practice for wealth and family preservation.
