This year’s Bankers Day organised by the Swiss Bankers Association (SBA) focused on the Swiss financial centre’s competitiveness. In his final address as Chairman of the SBA, Marcel Rohner called on politicians, legislators and regulators to establish competitiveness firmly as a goal in its own right alongside financial stability and client protection when designing operating frameworks. He also stressed the importance of robust vocational training and a culture of responsibility in providing a basis for the financial centre’s long-term success. At today’s Bankers Day event, Rohner passed the reins to the SBA’s new Chairman Giorgio Pradelli, CEO of EFG International.
