We are delighted to welcome Alvaro López-Aranda Robles as our new Country Head for Spain. With more than 20 years of experience in private banking and wealth advisory, Álvaro will lead the development of NS Partners’ private and institutional offering in the Spanish market.

Alvaro joins NS Partners with over 20 years of experience in private banking, wealth advisory and financial structuring for ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNWI), family offices and institutions.

He was most recently Senior UHNWI Strategy Consultant at OpenWealth, part of the CaixaBank Group, where he played a central role in building the group’s MFO and independent advisory business. His earlier career includes leadership roles at Barclays Wealth, and a strong foundation in financial tax law and M&A at Garrigues & Andersen.

“NS Partners is a firm built on independence, continuity and client trust,” says López-Aranda, “I’m honoured to join a team whose values I share, and to contribute to the development of its Spanish operations.”

This appointment also marks the beginning of a smooth leadership transition, as Juan Carlos Hergueta gradually steps aside from his executive responsibilities following many years of dedicated service as Country Head for Spain. NS Partners warmly thanks Juan Carlos for his major contribution to the growth of the Spanish business and his long-standing commitment to the firm and its clients.

NS PARTNERS has operated in Spain since 2001 under the EU freedom to provide services and established a permanent branch in 2012. The appointment of Alvaro López-Aranda underscores the firm’s commitment to long-term development and continuity in the Spanish market.
Founded in Geneva in 1964, NS PARTNERS manages over CHF 13 billion in assets and provides services in three main areas: Wealth Management, Asset Management and Fund Structuring via its Luxembourg-based Management Company. The firm operates across key European financial centres with a distinctive focus on quality, independence and conviction-driven portfolio management.
