Julius Baer announces staff moves for Swiss market, makes hires for Moscow investment unit

By Andrei Skvarsky.

Swiss bank Julius Baer has announced staff moves in its central management in Switzerland and made hires for its Moscow-based investment consultancy for Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).

Gilles Stuck, today’s head of structured finance, will be in charge of the Zurich-headquartered bank’s entire Switzerland business with effect from November 1.

His new role will be part of a reform to bring the lender’s various local divisions under a single managerial body, according to a statement from Julius Baer.

Stuck will report to Yves Robert-Charrue, head for Switzerland and Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Stuck joined Julius Baer in 2018. His previous record includes 11 years in senior Zurich- and Singapore-based jobs at Credit Suisse.

Emmanuel Debons, head for French-speaking Switzerland, has been appointed manager of the Geneva branch as from November 1. For a decade and a half before joining Julius Baer in 2014, he had held various managerial roles at UBS.

Andreas Feller, head for German-speaking Switzerland, is quitting Julius Baer after 12 years at the firm.

The bank has also made three hires for the investment advisory unit of its Moscow-based subsidiary, Julius Baer CIS.

Vladislav Metnev has been hired as an investment expert and Darya Matusevich and Ekaterina Ardasova as investment advisers.

Metnev comes from Russian company Ingosstrakh Investments Asset Management.

Matusevich had been a consultant for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals at the Moscow office of Credit Suisse for more than 10 years and Ardasova had in total spent over a decade at Sberbank and VTB, Russia’s largest and second-largest banks respectively, before joining Julius Baer.

Julius Baer opened a representative office in Russia in 2008. Julius Baer CIS was set up in 2018 and its investment unit opened early in 2019.
