Before creating Valeur Group, its founder and CEO, Lorenzo Vangelisti, had been working in banking and finance for many years. His first job in this sector can be dated back to 1996 when he worked in the Private Banking Division at Credit Suisse, Switzerland.

He then became Director of the Fixed Income and Equity Derivatives Team, making him responsible for covering institutional clients in Switzerland, Italy and Monaco. He was also awarded the Swiss Certified Banking Specialist Certificate by Centro di Studi Bancari (Vezia) and he is a CFA Charterholder.
