The UBS Center for Economics in Society at the University of Zurich will see a leadership change as Kaspar Villiger steps down as Chairman of the Foundation Board, with Christian Mumenthaler, former Group CEO of Swiss Re, set to succeed him. Villiger, who played a pivotal role in establishing the center in 2012 through a significant donation from UBS, is praised for his exceptional leadership and commitment to fostering collaboration between science, business, and politics. UBS reaffirmed its support with an additional CHF 27 million donation in 2020 to ensure the center's continued development.
