Mirabaud has brought Reto Hunziker and Sandra Kunze into its wealth management business in Uruguay.
Hunziker will lead Mirabaud Advisory (Uruguay). However, Fabio Kreplak will remain in charge of the entity catering to other Latin American markets. Kunze has joined the group to support.
“These two hires demonstrate that just one year after Mirabaud’s arrival in Uruguay, the Group is continuing to grow in response to the needs of clients that value our investment consulting expertise,” said Thiago Frazao, a limited partner who is responsible for wealth management for the LATAM market.
Kreplak added: “These two highly experienced professionals are familiar with both the Uruguayan economic and regulatory environment and the high quality requirements that prevail in Switzerland that have driven Mirabaud’s success for over 200 years.”
Hunziker said: “Last year, Mirabaud celebrated its bicentenary, which is testimony of the fact that this family Group has survived numerous international crises thanks to its approach centred around risk management, strong convictions and complete independence. Mirabaud’s expertise in investment consulting and wealth management is widely recognised and highly valued, and it is a great honour for me to now be able to count on the support of a network of talented analysts and experts.”
Hunziker has over 30 years’ experience working for Swiss institutions in the Uruguayan, Argentinian, and Brazilian banking sectors. A graduate of Bern University of Applied Sciences and the University of Barcelona, Hunziker was a manager at Julius Baer in Uruguay before joining Mirabaud.
