Discuss asset management with Charles

Prepare a useful conversation

What to prepare

These questions help prepare the discussion. They are not an eligibility decision or an automated assessment.

Your intention

Would you like to delegate, review an existing relationship or simply understand the possibilities?

The scope

Which assets would be involved, and would they be available for a potential mandate? Details will be considered within an appropriate framework.

Your priorities

What do you expect from the management, reporting and relationship with your contact?

The timetable

Is there a deadline or an upcoming decision you want to prepare for?

A pathway for your needs

From the first question
to a clear next step.

Each party's role

Who does what?

Diez de Cambournac and Charles

Diez de Cambournac is the initial point of contact. Charles acts within the contracts and authorisations actually applicable, explaining his role as a collaborator or business introducer before the introduction.

The professional concerned

The proposed asset manager is identified before any introduction. Available services, admission criteria and the terms of the mandate must be confirmed directly. No asset manager's endorsement of this page is claimed.

Diez de Cambournac does not manage assets or recommend portfolios. Personalised financial analysis and any acceptance decision are the responsibility of the competent professional.

Frequently asked questions

Does an introduction mean I must entrust my assets to someone?

No. An initial conversation allows your request to be considered. Any mandate is a separate decision, subject to terms agreed with the professional.

What minimum amount and countries are accepted?

These criteria must be confirmed with the asset manager for the proposed service. No unverified threshold or geographical coverage is stated here.

How can I choose an asset manager?

Compare the scope of the mandate, permitted instruments, approach to defining risk, frequency of discussions and termination terms. Ask who makes decisions and where the assets are held. The manager must assess your situation; Charles arranges the introduction without recommending a portfolio.

What fees should I ask about before signing a mandate?

Ask for a written breakdown of management, custody and transaction fees, product costs and any performance fees. Compare the total cost and included services, rather than just a quoted rate. The professional explains the fees applicable to their offering.

What is the difference between an asset manager and a private bank?

Asset management refers to portfolio management. A private bank may offer a range of banking and wealth services, including management, depending on its offering. The roles can therefore overlap. Clarify who manages the assets, who holds them and who provides each service.

Do I need to know which mandate I want?

No. You can start by explaining what you would like to delegate or change in your current relationship. The manager then explains the services and mandates they can offer.
