SIX has named Alexandre Zeller as the new chairman of its board of directors. The decision was made on 29 May at the general meeting of shareholders.
Zeller succeeds Peter Gomez, who will be stepping down from the role after seven years to focus on publishing and academic projects.
Most recently, Zeller was CEO of HSBC Private Bank in Switzerland and regional CEO of HSBC Global Private Bank EMEA.
Commenting on his new appointment Zeller, said: “In an environment that is changing enormously, SUX represents a stable and efficient financial market infrastructure.”
“As such, SIX plays a key role in the success of the Swiss financial centre. We must maintain this key role and, particularly in times of upheaval, further strengthen it by adapting dynamically to new conditions.”
