This enables us to provide offerings that are adapted to the specific nature of the local market”, said Alfredo Piacentini, Managing Partner at Banque SYZ & CO. “We are particularly satisfied with our partnership with N+1, a group we have known for many years, and with which we share the same vision and values.”
