The Geography of Wealth in Ticino

The Geography of Wealth in Ticino was an exclusive event hosted by Brülhart Luxury Real Estate on 24 September 2025 at Hotel Splendide Royal in Lugano, in the presence of FGP Swiss & Alps – Forbes Global Properties.

The conference had the pleasure of welcoming Quentin Epiney and Sebastien Gentilini of FGP Swiss & Alps – Forbes Global Properties, together with Sara Bassi of Colombo Wealth SA, as guest speakers. The event was also honoured by the presence of Klaus Fiala, Editor-in-Chief of Forbes Switzerland, as a special guest.

Supported by Colombo Wealth SA and Hotel Splendide Royal Lugano, the event brought together experts, investors and industry professionals for a discussion dedicated to the evolution of luxury real estate, wealth and lifestyle in Ticino.

At the centre of the event was a dedicated market study prepared by the Real Estate Market Research Department of Brülhart & Partners SA. The same department has authored the ProperTI Market Study since 2013, an authoritative reference for the Ticino real estate market and its long-term evolution.

The research explored the new geographies of wealth, the growing relevance of Ticino for international buyers and the factors that continue to shape demand for high-end real estate: lifestyle, fiscal stability, privacy, landscape, connectivity and long-term value.

The discussion positioned Ticino not only as a desirable residential destination, but also as a discreet and strategic location for wealth, family offices and exceptional properties. Through the contribution of FGP Swiss & Alps – Forbes Global Properties, Colombo Wealth SA and the research expertise of Brülhart & Partners SA, the event offered a broader perspective on the relationship between international visibility, private wealth and the luxury real estate market in Ticino.

For Brülhart Luxury Real Estate, The Geography of Wealth in Ticino represented an important moment of dialogue between real estate expertise, market research, wealth advisory and international positioning, reinforcing the role of Lugano and Ticino within the wider landscape of high-end living and long-term investment.
