JP Morgan Private Bank has appointed Peter Gabriele as head of investments for private clients in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Based in Geneva, Gabriele will oversee the firm’s multi-asset class investment capabilities for the region, reporting to international head of investments and capital advisory James Walker.

Gabriele brings over 25 years of experience to his new role, having already held leadership positions within JP Morgan’s private and investment banking divisions, the firm said.

Most recently, Gabriele was head of investments for the south central region of JP Morgan’s private bank in Chicago and was a member of the global investments opportunities team within the private bank before that.

He also previously managed the municipal bond trading desk for the investment bank.

In other recent developments, Thierry de la Gorce and Nathalie Laloum were added as senior private banker and senior investor respectively to the private banking team in Paris last week. 

JP Morgan Private Bank has over $770 billion in client assets.
