Mariya Spartalis is an international expert in private banking, family office advisory, and business development, as well as an international speaker operating at the intersection of two banking eras: classical private banking and institutionalized crypto banking.
Born in Kyiv, she has lived and worked in Zurich and Vienna for over 25 years. She holds a legal background and combines a long-standing international career with her role as a mother of three.
She began her professional career in traditional Austrian private banks, where she contributed to the establishment and development of Eastern European desks serving clients from the CEE and CIS regions. Capital preservation, disciplined risk management, and longterm financial sustainability have consistently been the guiding principles of her work.
Her career includes key roles at Credit Suisse and Schoellerbank, one of Austria’s oldest private banks and a pillar of the classical European private banking tradition. Within these conservative institutional environments, she developed a rigorous and structured approach to compliance, asset structuring, and risk control.
A defining chapter of her career was her role as Director at Falcon Private Bank, one of the first banks to legally integrate crypto assets into the traditional banking system. This experience positioned her as a distinctive expert bridging traditional finance and digital assets at an institutional level.
Today, Mariya Spartalis develops her own brand, Spartalis Capital, collaborates with Terreus Capital, advises HNWI and family office clients, and speaks internationally at financial forums and business congresses. She is also actively engaged in supporting the Ukrainian business ecosystem, facilitating international expansion and integration into global financial markets.
