He will join the Private Clients Executive Committee. With over 30 years of banking experience, Frédéric Praz has led the Swiss International market at Lombard Odier since 2017.

Why do we need to shift towards a nature-based economy? The critical interconnections between nature loss, climate change and economic prosperity are highlighted by Marc Palahí, Chief Nature Officer, and Laura García Vélez, Nature Specialist at Lombard Odier Investment Managers, in a recent article that appeared in L’AGEFI, Nouvelle Agence Économique et Financière Indices and Il Sole 24 Ore. With natural ecosystems removing over 60% of human-generated carbon emissions, they call for the redirection of private capital towards business models that help preserve and regenerate the Earth’s resources. Rising demand for climate-resilient land that has a positive impact on the planet will turn nature into a new asset class and create long-term opportunities for investors.
