UBS has further strengthened its investment banking line-up. After Marco Illy, the Swiss giant has now landed a senior Morgan Stanley executive.
Sebastian Pollems is moving from Morgan Stanley to UBS, where he will act as co-head of the investment bank for Germany and Austria, according to a report by «Finanzen», a German news portal. UBS confirmed the appointment.
This is the second senior appointment at the UBS investment bank within days. Last week it announced another prominent arrival: Marco Illy, long-serving head of Credit Suisse’s investment bank assumed the lead of the Swiss investment bank at UBS.
