Swiss private banking group Julius Baer has relocated two of its offices in Dubai to new premises in the Emirates Towers and the Dubai International Financial Centre, aiming to impress clients with luxurious facilities and to show a commitment to its operations in the Middle East.

In early December Julius Baer relocated Olivier Meystre, its chief executive for the East Mediterranean and Middle East, from Cairo to Geneva to oversee the further expansion of the Swiss private banking group’s advisory activities across the region.

Meystre has since been succeeded as CEO of Julius Baer Advisory in Cairo by Wael Hamroush, who has ten years of private banking experience and has represented a number of Swiss banks in the Egyptian capital.

Julius Baer’s East Mediterranean and Middle Eastern network comprises offices located in Abu Dhabi, Cairo, Dubai and Istanbul.
