Already present in Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado and California, this is the bank’s twelfth Wealth Management centre in the US.

"The opening of this new centre in the heart of Silicon Valley is part of a deliberate plan, alongside Bank of the West Wealth Management, our representative in the US, to strengthen our activity in this privileged region, at the epicentre of innovation and leading edge technology", says Sofia Merlo, Co-CEO of BNP Paribas Wealth Management.

A team of private banking advisors and Wealth Management professionals will offer a comprehensive range of exclusive, personalised wealth management services specifically tailored to HNW and UHNW* private banking clients, including private individuals, families, entrepreneurs and business leaders living or working in Silicon Valley.

"The opening of this new centre in Silicon Valley also underscores our commitment to supporting entrepreneurship, innovation and international networking. During the Palo Alto inauguration, we took the opportunity to also welcome 24 women entrepreneurs from seven different countries to the Stanford campus as part of the "Women Entrepreneur Program", adds Sofia Merlo.
