Before deregulation of European financial markets in 1987 - then a partner of a sovereign "Bankierhaus / Maison des Banquiers / Acceptance-/ Merchant Banking-house" would act as a confidant or a trustee/fiduciary at arm's length to other roles in financial markets; e.g. insurers, trading houses, brokers, clearing-banks and asset managers. Bankier-houses were pivotal to international financial centers - like Hamburg, Amsterdam, Paris and London. During two centuries they had developed and practiced a strict code for fit and proper conduct, which had resulted in positioning, overview and legitimacy to peg specific prices - and to arbitrate. Whenever this code of conduct was broken, then the responsible parties were punished.
After deregulation the list of relationships at a Bankier-house became valuable to multi-role financial groups with cross-selling strategies stimulated by internal bonus schemes. Today there are few independent Bankier-houses left - except in "Vermögensverwaltung / Gestion de Fortune / Wealth Management".
Bankier.co was initiated in 1988 as a supplementing alternative to the emerging multi-role financial groups, security brokerages and asset- and fund management companies - by focusing on the needs of owners/enterprisers and investors of the real economy in maritime regions. Look for more info on Bankier.co below.
National authorities have tended to favor illegally the business models of the financial industry's incumbents. Small and Mid-sized Enterprises (SMEs) without "Names" in media and markets have become underserved. That has resulted in damages and complaints. National remedy and the principle of State Liability have so far been ignored in many cases. After the economic crises of 2007-2009 real financial reforms with social impact should have happened.

Bankier.co's partners and associates practice a single-role as confidants or trustees/fiduciaries. They offer a value proposition to a new relationship after a dialogue - e.g. on how to become better prepared to meet markets.
The needs of owners/enterprisers and investors are similar everywhere - especially in maritime regions. Bankier.co focuses on these needs and is a "wedge" for impartiality by separating roles in markets and industries. There is no hidden agenda and/or carried interest. Relations are built on trust.
Bankier.co builds network and competency in maritime regions and can offer deliberations on vital dispositions; such as Pro-Active Restructuring and Reorganization (PARR) - e.g. by altering the use of assets to strengthen access to equity capital and/or mezzanine financing.
