3. Information about the financial services offered
Armonia Capital AG offers its clients individually tailored financial services in the areas of asset management as well as transaction-related and portfolio-related investment advice.
The services are provided on the basis of the respective contractual agreements and taking into account the individual needs and investment objectives of the clients.
Transaction-related investment advice
As part of transaction-related investment advice, Armonia Capital AG makes personal recommendations to buy, sell or hold individual financial instruments without taking the entire client portfolio into account.
The recommendations take into account the clients' knowledge and experience with regard to the investment categories concerned.
The decision to implement a recommendation and the related investment transactions rests solely with the client.
Portfolio-related investment advice
In portfolio-related investment advice, Armonia Capital AG takes into account not only the individual investment objectives and risk profile but also the composition of the entire client portfolio.
On this basis, personal investment recommendations are made that are aligned with the agreed investment strategy.
The decision to buy, sell or hold financial instruments remains with the client.
Asset management
Under an asset management mandate, Armonia Capital AG takes on the professional and ongoing management of the assets entrusted to it.
On the basis of a contractually agreed, limited power of attorney, the client grants Armonia Capital AG the authority to take investment decisions independently and to execute the corresponding transactions.
Asset management is carried out within the framework of the jointly defined investment strategy, taking into account the client's individual investment objectives, financial circumstances and risk tolerance.
The essential rights and obligations of the contracting parties and the scope of the respective services are set out in the corresponding investment advisory and asset management agreements.
4. Client segmentation
In accordance with Art. 4 of the Financial Services Act (FinSA), clients of financial service providers are assigned to one of the following client segments:
- Retail clients
- Professional clients
- Institutional clients
Client segmentation determines the scope of the applicable statutory protection and information obligations.
When entering into a business relationship, Armonia Capital AG classifies the client accordingly and informs the client of this classification.
Under the conditions provided for by law, clients may request a change of their classification by making a corresponding declaration (so-called opting-in or opting-out). Such a change may affect the scope of statutory client protection.
5. Information about risks and costs
General risks in trading financial instruments
The use of investment advisory and asset management services and investments in financial instruments involve financial risks.
Depending on the asset class and the investment strategy chosen, market, credit, liquidity, currency and counterparty risks in particular may arise. Fluctuations in value and a partial or total loss of the capital invested are possible.
Before concluding a contract, Armonia Capital AG provides its clients with the brochure "Risks Involved in Trading Financial Instruments" published by the Swiss Bankers Association. It explains the main risks of various financial instruments and forms of investment.
The client advisors of Armonia Capital AG are available at any time to answer questions about general investment risks or individual financial instruments.
Risks related to the services offered
The risks associated with investment advice and asset management depend in particular on the investment strategy chosen, the financial instruments used and the composition of the client portfolio.
The main investment-specific risks are explained in the course of personal advice, in the corresponding contractual documents and in the agreed investment strategy.
Where risk concentrations that are unusual for the market cannot be ruled out within a client portfolio, Armonia Capital AG informs the clients concerned of the nature and extent of the associated concentration risks. Indications of such risk concentrations may include in particular:
- A concentration of 10% or more of the portfolio value in individual securities or single positions.
- A concentration of 20% or more of the portfolio value with individual issuers.
Concentrations within collective investment schemes that are subject to regulatory risk diversification rules, such as certain UCITS funds and Swiss securities funds, are generally excluded.
When personally recommending financial instruments, Armonia Capital AG provides its retail clients with the corresponding key information document where required by law.
Costs and fees
Armonia Capital AG charges a fee for its services in accordance with the individually agreed contractual terms.
The fee may be calculated in particular on the basis of the assets advised or managed and, where contractually agreed, on a performance basis.
In addition, costs and fees of third parties may arise, in particular custody fees, transaction costs, product costs and other expenses related to the investment.
The applicable fee models, calculation bases and cost components are set out and disclosed in the respective investment advisory or asset management agreements and the related fee agreements.
Remuneration and benefits from third parties
In connection with the provision of financial services, Armonia Capital AG may receive remuneration or other monetary benefits from third parties.
The receipt, treatment and, where applicable, forwarding of such remuneration are governed by the corresponding contractual documents and are subject to the applicable statutory provisions.
If the exact amount of remuneration cannot be determined before the financial service is provided or before the contract is concluded, clients are informed of the relevant calculation parameters and the corresponding ranges.
For asset management and portfolio-related investment advice, this disclosure takes into account, where relevant, the portfolio value and the agreed investment strategy.
Clients' statutory claims for surrender and the conditions for a legally valid waiver of such claims remain reserved.
6. Information about economic ties to third parties
In connection with the financial services offered, there may be economic relationships or contractual agreements with third parties, in particular with custodian banks, product providers or other financial service providers. Such relationships may give rise to potential conflicts of interest.
Armonia Capital AG takes appropriate organisational measures to avoid conflicts of interest wherever possible or to minimise the resulting risks for its clients.
If adverse effects of a conflict of interest cannot be ruled out, the clients concerned are informed in accordance with the statutory requirements.
The treatment of any third-party remuneration and the related contractual provisions form part of the respective investment advisory and asset management agreements.
7. Information about the market offering considered
When selecting financial instruments, Armonia Capital AG generally follows an open investment approach ("open universe"). This makes it possible to take into account financial instruments from different providers and product categories when constructing and managing client portfolios.
The selection is based on objective and comprehensible criteria, taking into account in particular the quality, risks, costs, liquidity and suitability of the respective financial instruments within the agreed investment strategy. The aim is to identify suitable investment solutions in the interest of the clients.
Where both proprietary financial instruments and those offered by third parties are considered, Armonia Capital AG takes appropriate organisational measures to avoid conflicts of interest and to ensure a proper selection process.
If possible disadvantages for clients cannot be ruled out, they are disclosed in accordance with the statutory requirements.
8. Appropriateness and suitability
As part of its investment advisory and asset management services, Armonia Capital AG carries out the appropriateness and suitability assessments required by law. The nature and scope of these assessments depend on the agreed financial service and the respective client classification.
Appropriateness assessment for transaction-related investment advice
In transaction-related investment advice, personal recommendations are made on individual financial instruments without taking the entire client portfolio into account.
In accordance with Art. 11 FinSA, Armonia Capital AG assesses before making a recommendation whether the financial instruments concerned are appropriate for the client. To this end, the necessary knowledge and experience with regard to the relevant investment categories are obtained and assessed. The assessment takes into account the nature, complexity and risks of the financial instruments concerned.
Suitability assessment for portfolio-related investment advice and asset management
For portfolio-related investment advice and under asset management mandates, Armonia Capital AG carries out a suitability assessment in accordance with Art. 12 FinSA. In particular, the following information is obtained and taken into account:
- Financial circumstances, including the ability to bear financial losses.
- Personal investment objectives, investment horizon and risk tolerance.
- Knowledge and experience in relation to the relevant financial services and investment categories.
- Individual investment restrictions and particular needs of the client.
On the basis of this information, Armonia Capital AG prepares an individual risk profile and defines a suitable investment strategy together with the client.
The information is obtained and assessed taking into account the complexity of the financial instruments used as well as the risk profile and characteristics of the agreed investment strategy.
In portfolio-related investment advice, investment decisions remain with the client. Under an asset management mandate, these decisions are taken by Armonia Capital AG within the agreed investment guidelines.
Insufficient information or lack of appropriateness or suitability
If Armonia Capital AG does not have sufficient information to carry out the legally required appropriateness or suitability assessment, the clients concerned are informed of this before the corresponding service is provided.
If Armonia Capital AG considers an investment or financial service to be inappropriate or unsuitable, it advises the client against it in accordance with the statutory requirements.
The corresponding assessments and recommendations are recorded as part of the statutory documentation obligations.

4. Retention and deletion of personal data
We store your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the respective processing purposes or as required by statutory, regulatory or contractual retention obligations.

7. Data security
Armonia Capital AG takes appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, unintentional alteration or unlawful disclosure.
