Swiss private bank Julius Baer names new South East Asia market heads

(Reuters) -Switzerland-based private bank Julius Baer said on Friday it has appointed Shui Wei Ho and Vi Sun Yang as market heads for South East Asia, effective July 1.

Shui Wei and Yang will replace Chin Lit Yee, who is retiring after nearly a decade at the bank.

Yang took on the role as Group Head South East Asia in July 2022, while Shui Wei joined in the same role a month later.

Both Shui Wei and Yang will remain based in Singapore and report directly to Jimmy Lee, the region head Asia and member of the global wealth management committee, the bank said.
