Strategy
Direction, capital allocation, succession, and governance for owner-managed firms; bank, trustee, and advisor alignment inside the mandate; clear decision paths before structure and delivery.
Pillar5 GmbH · Basel-Stadt
Advisory in strategy, AI, and digital assets
For owner-managed and mid-size companies, entrepreneurs, and families in Switzerland. Advisory and delivery under one mandate; coordinated with your tax, legal, and financial advisors.
Beyond traditional wealth.
Why Pillar5
In Switzerland, provision rests on three statutory pillars, with private savings as the fourth. Pillar5 is the fifth layer when strategy, assets, and operating reality outgrow that frame. Inside the mandate we keep the picture clear and the handover written down; decisions stay with you.

Advisory and delivery; one point of contact; scope agreed in writing.
Advisory
AI
Inside the mandate we identify which workflows fit AI, train your team on the tools you keep, and automate only what you approve.
Digital Assets
Orientation, setup, and ongoing support: self-custody and hardware wallets (e.g. Ledger), documentation within the mandate, and someone to ask. No third-party custody without a separate agreement.
Project Delivery
Digital presence, structure and real estate, design, BIM, analytics, automation, and fundraising; in-house and with specialist partners. One contact; coherent scope and handover.
In-house
Delivered by Pillar5.
Specialist partners
Coordinated by Pillar5.
Advisory is provided on a mandate or fixed-fee basis. No investment advice or asset management with dispositive power over third-party assets under FinSA/FinIA. Information on real-estate transactions within specialist-partner coordination is not a binding offer. Digital assets involve high volatility. See Legal Notice.
