Private Banking is introducing a new governance structure
across the EMEA region for its Swiss, Austria, Liechtenstein and
Middle East Africa business.
This region will be led by Roland Matt, who will also remain
chief executive of LGT Bank Liechtenstein, the organisation said
in a statement yesterday.
LGT said the move will enable its private bank to manage
increased profitable growth “more effectively.”
The new regional structure, which excludes the business in the
UK, combines SFr109 billion ($112.7 billion) in AuM as of
end-2021.
Governance at group and market levels remains unchanged, it
said.
The banks at the individual EMEA locations will continue to be
managed by Heinrich Henckel (Switzerland), who will also remain a
member of the LGT Private Banking senior management board, as
well as Meinhard Platzer (Austria) and Sebastian Goeres (Middle
East).
As at 31 December 2021, LGT managed SFr285.8 billion for
private individuals and institutional clients.
