Credit Suisse’s APAC Private Markets Head to Exit

The Asia Pacific head of Credit Suisse’s private markets unit is reportedly stepping down after six years with the soon-to-be defunct Swiss lender.

Alois Mueller, APAC head of private markets group and global private equity investment committee co-chair, is leaving Credit Suisse, according to a «Bloomberg» report citing unnamed sources. 

Mueller plans to leave the bank at the end of April and is likely to remain in Hong Kong. He could pursue other job opportunities after a career break.

Mueller has 35 years of banking experience in Europe and Asia. Prior to joining Credit Suisse in Zurich in 2017, he was the North Asia head of Rothschild’s wealth management business. Previously, he also worked at UBS for over 20 years in Zurich and Hong Kong.
