Prince of Liechtenstein Foundation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Prince of Liechtenstein Foundation is a portfolio of private companies owned by the Princely Family of Liechtenstein. It is essentially a cap for a multitude of investments, such as the Liechtenstein Global Trust (LGT), the Hofkellerei wineries, Rice Tec Inc,[1] and real estate holdings in Vienna, Austria. The Foundation is the beneficiary of the LGT Group Foundation, which is currently chaired by Prince Philipp Erasmus.[2] It is what is known as a hedge fund investor.[3]

The Foundation is a Vaduz-based establishment since 1970, created to manage assets of the Princely Portfolio. Hans-Adam II, Prince of Liechtenstein was head of the Foundation from 1970 through 1984.[4] He is still the main beneficiary of the Foundation at the present time.[2] The chairman of Pearson PLC, Glen Moreno, is on the Board of Trustees at the Foundation and also LGT.[5] Professor Dr. Cuno Pümpkin, the Chairman of the Board of Directors at Invision Private Equity AG, is a former member of the Board of the Foundation/LGT Group.[6]
