UBS appoints new CFO following Credit Suisse’s takeover

Todd Tuckner will take on the CFO post at the close of the acquisition.

Following Credit Suisse’s acquisition of UBS Group, Todd Tuckner will take the helm as the combined firm’s Chief Financial Officer.

Tuckner will replace Sarah Youngwood, who will leave the firm after the transaction closes.

Before he was appointed Group CFO, Tuckner held various leadership roles across finance in the US and Switzerland. Currently, he serves as CFO and Head of Business Performance and Risk Management for Global Wealth Management.

Meanwhile, the UBS Group also reported that Credit Suisse AG CEO, Ulrich Körner, will join the UBS Group Executive Board upon the transaction close.

“With his knowledge of both organizations, he will be responsible for ensuring Credit Suisse’s operational continuity and client focus, while supporting the integration process,” the investment banking company disclosed.

Upon transaction close, the combined firm will operate with five business divisions, seven functions and four regions, and in addition Credit Suisse AG.

“Each will be represented by a Group Executive Board member, all of whom will report to Group CEO Sergio P. Ermotti,” the company said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
