Vom Praktikum zur CFO bei Bank Frick
Melanie Mündle spricht mit Corina Vogt-Beck von «Wirtschaft regional» über ihren Weg vom Praktikum am Empfang bis zur Geschäftsleitung.
So manche erfolgreiche Führungskraft wechselt nach ein paar Jahren das Unternehmen. Nicht so Melanie Mündle. Sie arbeitet seit 20 Jahren bei Bank Frick, seit 2018 ist sie CFO und Mitglied der Geschäftsleitung. Obwohl sie ursprünglich alles ausser Wirtschaft studieren wollte, haben sie die Zahlen in den Bann gezogen.
20 Jahre lang gemeinsam gewachsen
In ihrer Rolle geht es längst nicht mehr nur Finanzen, sondern um strategische Entscheide und grosse Projekte. Gewachsen sind Melanie Mündle und Bank Frick gemeinsam: Heute arbeiten fünfzehn Mal mehr Mitarbeitende bei Bank Frick als an ihrem ersten Arbeitstag. «Jetzt sind wir an einem Punkt, an dem wir das Geschäftsmodell nochmals skalieren und langfristig in diesem Geschäft gross werden können», erklärt Mündle im Gespräch.
Hier geht’s zum Porträt über Melanie Mündle in der Liechtensteiner Wirtschaftszeitung:

Focus on Crypto-Assets: New FINMA Requirements for Asset Managers
The Swiss FINMA has clarified its requirements for the custody of crypto-assets by asset managers. The new directive mandates that crypto-assets must be held separately for each client with a regulated custodian, such as a bank or an institution under equivalent supervision. Foreign custodians are only permitted if they provide bankruptcy protection equivalent to Swiss regulations.
Asset managers with crypto strategies and investment products—especially AMCs and ETPs—must review and, if necessary, adjust their current setups. Regulatory-compliant, legally robust, and operationally reliable custody solutions have become essential.
Bank Frick, as a MiCAR-licensed and regulated bank, offers tailor-made, legally secure solutions that combine regulated custody, trading, and additional services—positioning itself as a reliable partner in light of increasing regulatory demands in Switzerland and the EEA.
