UBP loses country head for Germany and Austria | Markets | 11/01/2022
Thomas Body has left Union Bancaire Privée (UBP) and joined William Blair Investment Management on November 1st. This emerges from entries in the career networks Xing and Linkedin. Body of Frankfurt has been responsible for the asset management business in Germany and Austria at the Geneva-based private bank since June 2021. He will work in business development at William Blair.
Body’s tasks for the German market have been taken over by Maribel Mozzi, as the company announced on request. Mozzi has headed UBP’s institutional business in Switzerland since 2016 and is now also responsible for the Frankfurt office and the asset management business in Germany. She reports on Nicolas Faller, co-head of asset management and head of institutional business. “UBP sees Germany as a strategic growth market and plans to further expand customer service,” emphasizes the company.
Sales cooperation in Austria
There is no successor to Body for the Austrian market. UBP refers to the “long-term partnership with the independent financial services company SMN” from Vienna, which sells the Geneva-based private bank’s funds exclusively in Austria. (bm)
