The latest moves and appointments for wealth management roles in the UK, other parts of Europe, the Middle East and select international locations.

Titanbay  
London-headquartered Titanbay, a European private markets infrastructure provider, has appointed Stéphane Corsaletti (pictured) as strategic advisor.

Corsaletti, who has more than 35 years of experience at the intersection of investment management, fund distribution, and B2B platform development, founded ABN AMRO Investment Solutions (AAIS), one of the first multi-management and sub-advisory platforms in Europe. He served as CEO of AAIS from 1998 to 2019 and as managing director of ABN AMRO from 2007. He subsequently joined Allfunds where, over five years, he served as chief investment officer and general manager of Allfunds Investment Solutions, the group's Luxembourg ManCo; he played a pivotal role in building its B2B investment solutions capabilities from the ground up. He stepped down from his executive role in March 2025.

As strategic advisor at Titanbay, Corsaletti will draw on his experience in B2B wealth platforms and fund distribution to support Titanbay's commercial strategy and distributor relationships across Europe. His appointment will strengthen Titanbay's advisory network at a defining moment for private markets distribution. Wealth managers across Europe are under growing pressure to offer private asset access to clients, and the operational and technology infrastructure to support that at scale is increasingly the critical differentiator, the firm said.

"Stéphane has spent his career building the infrastructure that connects fund managers to wealth managers at scale, first at ABN AMRO Investment Solutions, then at Allfunds,” Michael Gruener, Co-CEO of Titanbay, said. “That is exactly the world Titanbay operates in. His experience, his relationships, and his understanding of what it takes to make this work commercially are invaluable to us as we grow across Europe. We are delighted to have him."
