This publication can exclusively report that Chris Mueller has stepped down from his role at Standard Chartered’s private bank as global head of investment advisory. He has been based in Singapore.
Mueller’s role is not being replaced because the reporting structure at the bank has changed, making his old position redundant, a spokesperson for the UK-listed bank told WealthBriefingAsia when asked about the matter.
“In order to ensure stronger collaboration between the investment advisors and our front office teams, the private bank’s investment advisory team will now report to their respective regional private banking heads (Vivian Chan in GCNA, Srini Siripurapu in ASEAN and South Asia, and Ian Gibson in EMEA), as well as a joint reporting line to Alexis Calla, our global head of investment strategy and advisory,” the spokesperson added.
Mueller was at Standard Chartered for just over two years. Previously, he held the role of head, investment advisory, Asia, at Julius Baer, from November 2013 to February 2015, according to his LinkedIn profile. Prior to that, he worked for six years and seven months at various roles for UBS in Asia.
