LGT Vestra
Another former Credit Suisse private banker has switched to LGT Vestra in the UK. Charles Stanford, who joined the Zurich-listed bank in 2007, has just started at the UK firm, holding the position of partner, according to his Linkedin profile.

Lyness worked at Credit Suisse from 2014 to 2014; prior to this he worked for four years as a fixed income portfolio manager for Morgan Stanley, and he started his career in 1999 at PricewaterhouseCoopers, according to his Linkedin profile. McNamara was a director at Credit Suisse in London from November 2013 to June this year; prior to this, he was a vice president at Morgan Stanley, starting at the US firm in 2000. The men hold the post of wealth manager at LGT Vestra.
