Christopher Marriott, Founder & Chairman 

Christopher has been advising individuals and their families for over 30 years, firstly in the UK for 10 years and then in Switzerland from 2001. In 2003, Christopher established Blackden Financial and in 2009 became a founder member of FEIFA, the Federation of European Independent Financial Advisers. In addition, Christopher remains an active member of the British Swiss Chamber of Commerce.

With extensive experience in all aspects of investment and financial planning, Christopher advises high net worth clients throughout Switzerland and Europe. And with Blackden’s independence being of paramount importance, his clients receive value for money that is second to none.

The security and flexibility of the investment structures available from Blackden are testament to the standard of advice offered – Christopher has built Blackden’s success by putting clients first at all times, with correspondingly positive outcomes for their wealth accumulation and protection.

Out of the office, Christopher enjoys skiing, hiking and spending time with his young grandson, and remains a passionate believer in the importance (and value) of financial education and financial planning.
