Rothschild & Co has further expanded its reach in greater Zurich area by hiring a team of six relationship managers.
By hiring new people, the firm aims to boost its client service capability in the region, which is largely dominated by German-speaking population.
It follows the appointment of Andreas Feller as the head of the firm’s Swiss onshore Zurich and deputy head of private banking Zurich.
The move comes after Rothschild & Co announced a deal to sell two asset management units from its North American arm to Wintrust Financial.
The move includes the recruitment of Aaron Keller as the head of the Swiss onshore Zurich executive & entrepreneurs team that will cater to the high-net-worth family executives and entrepreneurs in greater Zurich.
Most recently, Keller served as the head of entrepreneurs & executives at Credit Suisse in the greater Zurich area.
