Van Lanschot nv is the holding company of F. van Lanschot Bankiers nv, the oldest independent bank in the Netherlands. Its 270-year long history constitutes the foundation for the current Private Bank, offering a solid basis for the future. Van Lanschot’s services mainly focus on high net-worth individuals and entrepreneurs.
Our services are organised into four business segments: Private Banking, Asset Management, Business Banking and Corporate Finance and Securities.

Our services to high net-worth individuals revolve around wealth creation and protection. In this context, we are able to offer a wide range of products and services, in keeping with our aim of being the best Private Bank in The Netherlands and Belgium. We apply the principle of open architecture when offering products to clients, which means offering third-party products when this is in the client’s interest.

In the corporate sector, we seek to meet the private and professional needs of business owners and managers. Our main clients are family businesses and their directors/majority shareholders, as well as medium-sized enterprises.

Van Lanschot has made a conscious choice for a size which guarantees the right balance between complete and high-quality services and a personal approach, with short communication lines. We are attentive and responsive to our clients’ needs, while also offering a high degree of flexibility and discretion. Consequently, we excel in those services which large banks cannot or cannot easily provide because of their size. Personal relationships are paramount. In business banking, co-entrepreneurship is the main ingredient of our client relationship. For this reason, most of our clients expressly choose to bank with us as a deliberate alternative to the large banks.
