Swiss bank spy fiasco puts UBS succession in frame CGAThompson
UBS boss Sergio Ermotti said the bank has least three internal candidates who could eventually step into the CEO role, Reuters reported on Aug. 29, citing local media.
“We have at least three good internal candidates, and if somebody leads our core business as co-chief, it’s pretty clear that this person should have the potential,” Ermotti told Swiss newspaper Neue Zuercher Zeitung, adding a change was not imminent. “It’s just going to depend on the needs of the bank at the time of the change.”
Ermotti, who has been CEO since 2011, made the comments after the world’s biggest wealth manager appointed ex-Credit Suisse employee Iqbal Khan to co-lead its flagship wealth management business alongside U.S. counterpart Tom Naratil, as part of a broader shakeup of its executive board. Credit Suisse said on Oct. 1 that its Chief Operating Officer Pierre-Olivier Bouée resigned after an internal investigation found he initiated surveillance of Khan, the bank's former wealth management head.
