History

Our historical roots date back to 1972 in Switzerland when Translink was one of the first investment banking boutiques executing cross borders deals between Europe and the US. Since our beginnings, we have developed a truly global footprint. Translink expanded its coverage rapidly during the last decades and is now a truly global organization with offices in over 30 countries encompassing all continents. Translink is a tightly knit global firm with its offices working together exclusively and integrated based on common values, procedures and information systems. Still today, Translink maintains a distinctive culture, stemming from the ideas of Dr. Roland Schucht.

Today, in addition to large operations in Europe and US, we operate a growing number of offices around the world including India, China, Japan, Latin America, Africa and Australia.
