According to Diez, the office in Monterrey will be opening in July 2015, while the operations in Guadalajara will start in September next year.
Diez said: "Mexico is the second-largest holder of UHNWIs after Brazil with 20% of Latin America’s total UHNWIs."
Diez said the bank is working to have a multi-family office for the UHNW network as in Mexico "it is not a very common model".
"We are helping families to plan and transfer their wealth to the next generation, as well as many other services, from philanthropy to art collecting," he added.
