As early as 1362 the Hottinger name was linked to the political,
commercial, economic, cultural and religious development of Zurich.
Hans, Heinrich and Rudolf were appointed burghers of this city in 1401.
To their descendants, their names have symbolized honor and distinction.
The standards they set for a serious, rigorous approach to business,
and their strong sense of duty to their profession, have proved to be
an exceptional legacy.
By the end of the 18th century their successors had made banking their
principal activity. Hans Konrad Hottinger left Zurich for Paris, where,
in 1786, he founded the bank that still bears his name. After almost
two centuries of successful banking in Paris, the Hottinger family
returned to Zurich in 1968. With the founding of Hottinger & Cie
the descendants of the former burghers of the city firmly
re-established themselves in their country of origin.
Zurich and Geneva, as international banking centers, provide the ideal
opportunity to offer new and demanding clients the benefits of the
family's long-established relationships, a reliability born of
centuries of experience, and the well-earned reputation of an ancient
Swiss name.
