Liechtenstein Private Bank Announces Boardroom Changes

VP Bank, the Liechtenstein-based private bank, has made a
number of boardroom changes after its annual meeting in Vaduz
in the same week that it announced the new role of chief
operating officer and
deputy chief executive as part of its Asia
expansion.
At the annual meeting, Hans Brunhart did not stand for
re-election to the board of directors. He was replaced by Fredy
Vogt, appointed
chairman of the board at its inaugural meeting. Max Katz was also
elected to
the board.
Last week, as reported by this publication, Reto Isenring
started in the newly-created function of chief operating officer
and deputy
CEO at
VP Bank. Isenring will also be a member of executive
management. He was previously
interim CEO of the bank's Singapore
branch, pending the appointment of Ian Irvine Pollock, who now
officially takes
over as CEO of VP Bank Singapore,
in addition to his leadership role in Hong Kong,
subject to regulatory approval.
Meanwhile, the annual meeting approved the payment of a
dividend of SFr1.50 per bearer share and SFr0.15 per registered
share.
