Liechtenstein-based private bank with fund management and wealth advisory across five regions
VP Bank is a 1,000-person Liechtenstein bank operating across Vaduz, Zurich, Luxembourg, Singapore, and the British Virgin Islands. The tech stack reveals a traditional banking architecture (Avaloq core, SAP ERP, Oracle databases, Java backend) with emerging data-science capability (Python, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, Tableau). Hiring velocity is accelerating—21 roles posted in the last month—with finance and engineering roles concentrated in Liechtenstein and Luxembourg, suggesting infrastructure modernization and regulatory tightening as concurrent imperatives.
