Ariel is second to none worldwide, when it comes to the advising highly demanding entrepreneurs around the globe. Highly recognised professional, utmost efficient and loyal, he gives invaluable wholistic advice, with no international or national aspect escaping his eye. In short, what Ariel doesn't know is simply not worth to know - the saying goes.
He has the track record of 100% of the most challenging tasks to be completed to the clients' absolute satisfaction and beyond. His strong point is the anticipation and prevention of the fatal pitfalls, as well as saving huge amount of money as a 'by-product?, while completing the tasks. Ariel himself is capable to do the work, which normally requires several consulting groups. You would n't blink your eye, while he would already give you a valuable advice, present all the options and outline a roadmap to success. He knows when to use the Lego stones, where the others build the bicycle. And next ' he will nail the deal for you. Good luck!

Ariel knows how to mix this two qualities and is able to deliver real value to his clients while making it a very pleasant experience. He has a genuine interest to explore the needs of his clients, the ability to help them look inwards to understand what they are really looking for, and finally the grace to deliver the advise in a very thoughtful way.
Having dealt with international relocations a number of times, I can't stress enough how important is to find the right advisors to navigate it. As a matter of fact, I would argue that the selection of the right advisor is your most important decision when relocating to a different jurisdiction, and I would definitely recommend to consider Ariel as the person to assist in your journey to Switzerland.

In other words - Ariel is always at the cutting edge of know-how. His level of empathy and ability to create 'win-win situations' is unparalleled. I do not know anybody else who is truly so multi-tasking and still keeps an eye on the details and the regulations at the same time. The expression 'Tailor made solutions' has inflated in the industry during the last decade, yet Ariel is the one, who is indeed able to provide unique and the most efficient solutions. He is the Best Banker to serve Entrepreneurs, as he understands them and has no selling agenda. His horizons are wide and he is a fine tuner when it comes to serving Generations of UHNWI Families of various origin and cultures. I recommend him gladly and without any reservations!

Private Client review:
Arik, as I like to call him, belongs to an exceptionally rare breed of Swiss financial advisers. When he proffers advice, you can rest assured he relies upon his personal assessment of a particular situation rather than simply towing the Bank's formal line. In practice, this means he acts in the best interests of his Clients rather than those of the Bank or indeed himself. Furthermore, in my experience Arik always treats his Client's money as he would his own. You cannot ask for more than that!
