Lombard Odier demonstrates commitment to Asia

Vincent Magnenat has been appointed as a Limited Partner at Lombard Odier

Effective February 2018, Magnenat has been appointed as a Limited Partner at Lombard Odier, in addition to retaining his existing position as Chief Executive Officer for Asia and Asia Head of Private Banking.  This demonstrates the company's continued long-term commitment to the Asia region.

Asia is a key strategic growth region for Lombard Odier and Magnenat will continue to focus on driving the business’ expanding footprint, partnerships and client development.

Magnenat joined the Group in 2014 as CEO of the Singapore office and Asia Head of Private Banking, and from which has been instrumental in developing Lombard Odier’s local and international client base, growth of its regional presence via its offices in Singapore, Hong Kong and Tokyo, and the expansion of its wealth management partnerships with leading financial institutions in Thailand, the Philippines and elsewhere in Asia.

Prior to joining Lombard Odier, Vincent spent close to nine years at Société Générale as Regional Head of Sales and Marketing for Private Banking in Asia, overseeing business development efforts across the region. In parallel, he also played a lead role in building the bank’s UHNW client platform. Vincent began his career in international private banking at Credit Suisse in Switzerland and relocated to Singapore in 2002. Asia has been home for Vincent for the past fifteen years, having lived and worked in both Hong Kong and Singapore.
