VP Bank’s expansion strategy came as the Group’s Board of Directors had elect Dr Thomas R. Meier as the 10th member of the Board of Directors. Dr Meier was the CEO Asia for Bank Julius Baer from 2007 to 2015.

The Liechtenstein-based bank also announced a partnership with the Business Families Institute at Singapore Management University (BFI@SMU) to tap their expertise on business family-specific issues in Asia such as succession, family governance, entrepreneurship and wealth management.

In Q3 2018, VP Bank and BFI@SMU will present a panel session titled ‘Safely Ahead – Towards A Lasting Legacy beyond Wealth Transfer’ moderated by Professor Annie Koh (PhD in Finance), Singapore Management University.

Bruno Morel, CEO, VP Bank (Singapore):

”VP Bank Singapore is committed to grow safely ahead in Asia, with the region being one of the bank’s target markets where we see extensive growth opportunities. Beyond commemorating 10 years in Singapore, the bank will also celebrate new milestones including the implementation of the new structure to support the bank’s future growth targets, the expansion of our physical site at Asia Square Tower for headcount growth, as well as ambitious hiring plans.”

Christoph Mauchle, Head of Client Business of VP Bank Group and member of Group Executive Management:

“Even as we celebrate VP Bank Group’s 10th anniversary in Singapore, the bank will continue to forge safely ahead in the years ahead, establishing a strong presence globally as well as in Asia. Our efforts will be supported by the appointment of Dr Meier, as he strengthens the expertise of the Group’s Board of Directors, while safeguarding the bank’s long-term succession planning. As Asia continues to play a central role in VP Bank’s plans, we look forward to draw on the extensive expertise of Dr Meier to support our activities in the Asian markets, where he will contribute to the further development of our locations in Singapore and Hong Kong.”
