ISP

ISP

ISP was established in 1993 by Roy Tal, who continues to chair the group, alongside Vice Chairman Philipp Steinberger. The firm is anchored in Zurich but maintains roots in Hellerup, Denmark. Its origination story is tied to specialized investment services for corporates, banks, and financial institutions, rather than a single wealth-creation event, positioning it as a privately held boutique without a disclosed family-office lineage. The firm structures its activity across four verticals: Asset Solutions, Digital Assets, Investment Management, and Global Markets. Its digital-asset practice includes a custody portfolio, while its real estate group executes securitization mandates in Switzerland and across EMEA. The gold and active monetary-certificate solutions desk serves institutional clients seeking hard-asset exposure. On the private-credit side, the firm maintains a strategic partnership with Kingsbury & Partners, where John Hubball serves as CIO, extending ISP's reach into GCC-originated credit opportunities. The firm also acts as a trading participant and liquidity provider on BX Swiss and is a reporting member and sub-custodian with SIX SIS. The senior team includes Fabio Oertle, who leads Asset Solutions as an Executive Board Member, and Itay Strum, a Board Member based in Tel Aviv, reflecting the firm's cross-border operating model. ISP has not disclosed aggregate assets under management or total deployment figures. No recent fund-closing or vehicle-launch dates are publicly available. ISP's architecture diverges from a pure asset manager by pairing its SIX SIS sub-custodian and BX Swiss liquidity-provider memberships with in-house structuring and securitization capabilities. This hybrid design — part regulated market-infrastructure participant, part issuer and investment manager — gives the firm a distinctive posture, particularly in Swiss and Middle Eastern markets where the combination of custody, issuance, and placement remains rare for an entity of its scale.
