HISTORY OF THE FIRM
During the second half of the year 2008, as financial markets were turbulent, HARIS FINANCIAL set itself the objective of offering targeted and structured services aimed at providing significant added value to companies in managing their risks.
We founded our approach on the belief that proximity, listening, responsiveness, independence, and objectivity are essential to establishing lasting and effective professional relationships with our clients. It is thanks to these values, our strong commitment, and a constant quest for tangible results that we have achieved our goal.
Today, thanks to your renewed trust, HARIS FINANCIAL approaches the future with confidence.
We will redouble our efforts to ensure that our advanced and independent financial expertise, combined with our personalized support, continues to help you make informed and consistent decisions aligned with your business, financial goals, and management philosophy.
