Our story
Our story is inspired by Aurelie Chreng's entrepreneurial mindset who, in 2020, co-founded Blackcrest private office in the heart of London.
Aurelie brought the vision — an instinct for opportunity and the belief that a private office should move with the same agility as the clients it serves. She was joined by Ythier Soyer, a solicitor qualified in England and Wales and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, who brought the discipline of the law and years of experience advising high-net-worth individuals and their families on complex, cross-border matters.
Proud and confident in their respective fields of expertise, the two partners built Blackcrest into a private office that pairs entrepreneurial drive with legal and professional rigour. From their offices on Pall Mall, they serve clients across many countries — discreetly, personally, and in the conviction that the finest results are built on genuine, lasting relationships.
