Previously managed on a regional basis, the Swiss private bank will now administer the country as a region in its own right and has appointed Yves Robert-Charrue as chief executive of its Swiss operations.
Robert-Charrue had been the group’s head of investment solutions and will be succeeded in this post by Hans Lauber who is set to join the company on 1 September from Winterthur Group where he was CIO.
“With the creation of a single market region Switzerland, Bank Julius Baer now has become the alternative for Swiss-domiciled clients seeking a first-class private banking relationship,” said Boris Collardi, Julius Bare CEO.
“Together with the addition of senior investment professional Hans Lauber, we are poised to achieve our ambition to become the investment provider of choice for sophisticated private banking clients.”
