# Leading independent asset managers
We are perceived as the leading independent asset manager in Switzerland. We provide our [private](https://www.hotz-partner.ch/index.php?Itemid=293&lang=en) and [institutional](https://www.hotz-partner.ch/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=112&Itemid=326&lang=en) clients with highly professional and unique service.
What principles do we follow? [Independence](https://www.hotz-partner.ch/index.php?Itemid=286&lang=en) is a key asset for us. Our company is and will remain in family-owned. For the Hotz family, a sale and the associated loss of independence are outside the scope of all agenda items.
Our actions are characterized by [transparency and cost efficiency](https://www.hotz-partner.ch/index.php?Itemid=287&lang=en), [anti-cyclicality](https://www.hotz-partner.ch/index.php?Itemid=288&lang=en), [long-term orientation](https://www.hotz-partner.ch/index.php?Itemid=288&lang=en), [sustainability](https://www.hotz-partner.ch/index.php?Itemid=291&lang=en) and continuity. Anchored in our DNA, these principles embody the foundation of our consistently quality-oriented investment policy.
What is the current supervisory framework? Since June 2023, we have been licensed by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority ([FINMA](https://www.finma.ch/en/ "FINMA")) as asset manager for collective assets (Art. 24 FINIG).
In the event of differences of opinion with our company, our clients have the option of requesting mediation proceedings with our [ombudsman SCAI](https://www.swissarbitration.org/centre/ombuds-fin/ "Ombudsman").
