The hires build on last year's addition of Yves de Coulon, a Geneva-based property lawyer, the firm said in a statement.

The latest appointments include Anne Marion-Bouchacourt, a chartered accountant who was previously head of human resources at Societé Générale, before becoming chief country officer for China. Until January this year, she was country head of Switzerland and currently sits on the board of the National Bank of Greece, the firm continued.

Other board members include Valérie Patthey who was regional and international marketing manager at Julius Baer, before taking on the same role at Pictet Wealth Management. Finally, Jean-Louis Berthoud (whose father is Jean Berthoud, chairman of the board) has been appointed, bringing with him a scientific background. He will play a significant role in defining Bonhôte’s ESG strategy, the firm said.

“I am particularly pleased that my son Jean-Louis has been appointed to the board as this will ensure continuity,” Jean Berthoud added.

“More so than ever, we want to offer personalised banking services tailored to the individual needs of each and every client,” Yves de Montmoli, CEO, said.

The firm has made a number of appointments recently, including Kim-Andrée Potin as chief operating officer. See more commentary here.
