Rahim Invest operates as a member of the FINMA-supervised VQF SRO No. 101332
Compliance Onboarding under VQF SRO standards · two paths from there: direct or fiduciary, calibrated to your file.
In a competitive Swiss banking market, GCC clients face structural friction at the onboarding gate. Bespoke Gateway is the structured response.
Even qualified applicants are routinely rejected at retail-direct onboarding. Banks bear meaningful internal cost (~CHF 5,000) per cross-border KYC file; conversion is selective; the criteria are opaque. Without preparation, the path is high-friction and uncertain.
Bespoke Gateway packages your file to Swiss-bank standards once — and that file then opens doors across our partner banks. You walk in with our reach, not as a single retail file.
One regulatory clearance file under VQF SRO. Transferable across our partner banks.
We prepare a complete AML/KYC file structured to Swiss-bank standards: identity, source-of-wealth pack, family-and-business structure, jurisdictional flags. Reviewed once at Rahim Invest under VQF SRO discipline; ready to be presented across banks without re-onboarding at each placement.
Scoped to your profile — our compliance team specifies the exact pack after the initial call. Generic categories: identity, source of wealth, business and family structure.
Packaged to Swiss-bank standards. Reviewed once under VQF SRO discipline. Persists across our partner banks — no re-onboarding at each placement.
Operating under Swiss anti-money-laundering supervision and Swiss Code of Obligations mandate framework. Discipline that banks recognise.
After Compliance Onboarding, the file fits one of two destinations — based on your profile and the bank's posture.
When the file fits direct retail onboarding at a partner bank.
After onboarding you become a direct client of the bank. Standard banking relationship; we step back from the day-to-day. Rahim Invest remains your counterpart for compliance, advisory, and future structural needs.
When you choose mandate or direct access does not fit.
Rahim Invest places funds at offshore branches under our name, for your account. VStG Art. 13 withholding-tax exemption activates; OR Art. 400 pass-through preserves your beneficial ownership. The structural advantages compound here.
Two pillars compound when you take the fiduciary path: economics and discretion.
Swiss withholding — recovered, not lost.
On a USD 10,000,000 placement at 4%:

Year 5: ≈ USD 700,000
Year 10: ≈ USD 1,400,000
Most banks do not volunteer this to foreign clients. As your fiduciary, we do.
