A Merchant Tradition

The merchant house tradition from which Rhône Merchant House takes its name belongs to 16th-century La Rochelle, a prominent center of maritime commerce with a trading history extending back to Roman times.

For centuries, merchant houses played an important role in financing trade and commercial voyages connecting Europe with markets around the world.

Rhône Merchant House carries this tradition into the modern capital markets, combining the principles of traditional merchant banking with contemporary investment banking and corporate advisory services.
