    and will have the responsibility for the Middle East and European
    markets. He was previously a managing director at Bank Sarasin
    Alpen in Dubai.

    relationship management. based in geneva, the role focuses on

    head of private banking at Mashreq Bank.

    president, relationship management.  Vahabzadeh will also be
