Having joined the Board of Directors of VP Bank in April 2018, a former executive of Julius Baer in Asia has been appointed with immediate effect as the second Vice President.
In this function, Thomas R. Meier is also a member of the Nomination & Compensation Committee of Liechtenstein-based VP Bank, according to a media release on Wednesday. This makes it easier for him to use his external relations more efficiently.
Last year, Meier, for many year the CEO of Julius Baer in Asia, was appointed to a three-year term on the Board of Directors. This appointment strengthens the Board’s competencies, ensures long-term succession planning and makes a significant contribution to the successful strategic development of VP Bank’s Asian business.
In Search of a CEO
«As a proven Asia specialist, Thomas Meier will in future become even more involved in the further development of VP Bank’s Asia strategy and of our locations in Singapore and Hong Kong,» Fredy Vogt, Chairman of the Board of Directors, said. VP Bank is still looking for a new CEO after Alfred W. Moeckli resigned in January 2019.
