Speaking at the Julius Baer ‘Next Generation Summit’ in Singapore Boris F.J. Collardi, CEO of Bank Julius Baer emphasised the Zurich based bank’s commitment to and confidence in Asia. Collardi also put an emphasis on both India and Indonesia as future strong growth contributors to the bank.
Asia now represents 25 percent of Julius Baer’s global business; this is from zero just over 9 years ago. Collardi said that in relative terms Asia is Julius Baer’s fastest growing region and going forward he is sure this will continue to be the case.
The bank Collardi went on, has a three-pronged approach in Asia there is North Asia, including greater China, South East Asia and India. Julius Baer has recently entered the onshore Indian market and is a place where Collardi believes the bank will see strong growth.
