Heinz Huber, CEO of Raiffeisen Switzerland, will resign unexpectedly to become Chairman of Graubündner Kantonalbank (GKB) in July 2025. Christian Poerschke will serve as interim CEO starting January 1, 2025, as the bank seeks both internal and external successors. Huber's tenure at Raiffeisen saw significant growth despite challenges, including a scandal that impacted the bank's reputation.
Graubündner Kantonalbank (GKB) will acquire the remaining 30 percent of BZ Bank on January 1, 2025, becoming its sole shareholder. This move completes the succession planning of BZ Bank's founder, Martin Ebner, who emphasized the importance of a responsible handover for the bank's future success. Collaboration with Ebner's company, Patinex Management, will continue, leveraging expertise in corporate analysis and private equity.
Graubündner Kantonalbank, a Swiss banking provider, is set to acquire the remaining stake in BZ Bank. The bank offers a wide range of services across four divisions: private, corporate, private banking, and youth, including accounts, financial consulting, asset management, and online banking.
Graubündner Kantonalbank (GKB) will acquire the remaining 30 percent of BZ Bank, making it the sole owner by early 2025. This final step in the succession planning of founder Martin Ebner follows the sale of 70 percent to GKB in 2022, with ongoing collaboration through Patinex Management AG. BZ Bank, established in 1985, specializes in advising clients on equity investments and private equity.
Ethos has expanded its shareholder dialogue by adding four cantonal banks: Aargauische Kantonalbank, Banque Cantonale Vaudoise, Berner Kantonalbank, and Graubündner Kantonalbank, bringing the total to eight banks and asset managers engaged in active shareholder engagement. This initiative aligns with the Swiss Stewardship Code principles established in 2023. Ethos has been facilitating communication on ESG issues since 2004 through its Ethos Engagement Pool, which now includes 189 members with over CHF 375 billion in investments.
