Unified management
The Swiss Bankers Association (SBA) is merging its Public Affairs and Communications divisions. Thomas Sutter, Deputy CEO and Head of Communications, will be leaving the company.
As part of the succession planning for Kuno Hämisegger, who is taking early retirement as Head of Public Affairs, the Swiss Bankers Association (SBA) has conducted an in-depth analysis of its public relations activities in recent months. The result of this analysis is the merger of the two areas of Communications and Public Affairs under a single management. This new function will be advertised and filled in the course of 2017.
Thomas Sutter, Deputy CEO and Head of Communications, has decided that he will forego this application process. By mutual agreement, he will leave the SBA after a notice and transition period yet to be determined. Thomas Sutter has been responsible for the SBA's external communications for a good 16 years.
