Company History

Corporate History

Although FFT as an entity was incorporated in 2005, our roots as a financial service provider specializing in the field of Swiss Trust Companies go back to the closing decades of the 20th century.

Our international team includes partners who, in 1970s, pioneered Swiss Trust Companies as a concept and have both shaped and defined the market into what it is today. In other words, when dealing with First Fidelity Trust AG, you are working with the same team who helped bring the Swiss Trust Company concept to the market over 40 years ago.

In 2010, following four successful years on the Swiss market, First Fidelity Trust AG expanded internationally by retaining authorized representatives in the United States and China. Our new representative offices in the very financial heart of Geneva was thus established to meet the growing global needs of the organization.

Corporate Values

First Fidelity Trust AG has five simple, clear, and concise values that guide our everyday operations.

Respect for privacy – the confidentiality of our clients is of paramount importance to us. We are happy to work solely with the information you choose to divulge, and will never seek to pry into your business dealings in the name of delivering customized solutions. The exact extent of information you choose to make available to us is always entirely up to you - and, should the need arise, we will adapt our service delivery approach to minimize any unwanted exposure from your end.

Flexible solutions - from our extensive experience, we know that our clients have different needs and intended uses for the Swiss trust companies we offer. By leveraging our unrivalled on-the-ground expertise of dealing with Swiss regulatory agencies, legal advisors and financial intermediaries, we are able to develop customized solutions to suit your unique business needs. We know that, in many cases, a Swiss trust company is merely the foundation of a prosperous financial venture - and we have the expertise to ensure that the foundation we provide can accommodate your exact needs.
Continued innovation - we are proud to be the market leader in developing and offering innovative solutions related to Swiss Trust Companies. For example, we were the first on the market to offer SWIFT and Euroclear membership for Swiss Trust Companies purchased from FFT. We were also the first to offer the opportunity of issuing bonds for STCs obtained through us, as well a fusing the state of the art modern technology that is blockchain with the traditional Swiss values offered by the Swiss Trust Company.
Service diversity - as the world's leading provider of Swiss Trust Companies, FFT AG is used to working with clients from around the world. For this reason, we associate a highly skilled and experienced team of international consultants who are always delighted to respond to your enquiries in English, French, German, Russian and Polish.
Customer satisfaction - we are proud to say that we have never had a dissatisfied customer. Not a single client has ever requested a refund, or otherwise expressed dissatisfaction with our service or with the solutions eventually delivered to them. A lot of our business comes from word-of-mouth referrals from former customers - and that, we think, is ample testimony to the excellence of the service we deliver
