Saffery Champness has promoted Paul Tucknott and Ross Belhomme to the board of directors of their Swiss based business.
With more than 15 years’ experience in the industry, Mr Belhomme joined Saffery Champness in 2011 and oversees the administration team in the Geneva office, the development of the Zurich business and is responsible for the firm’s legal and compliance obligations in Switzerland.
Alongside Mr Belhomme, Mr Tucknott (pictured) is responsible for the operating companies in the Geneva office, handling the relationships of a number of high net worth clients and leading the accounting services team.
After beginning his career in the Guernsey office of Saffery Champness in 2000, Mr Tucknott moved to the Geneva office when it opened in 2008. After a short period in a private bank trust company he returned to Saffery Champness’s Geneva office in 2012.
Nick Batiste, Managing Director of Saffery Champness in Guernsey, said: “Both Paul and Ross have been instrumental in the development of our Swiss business, demonstrating considerable expertise and enthusiasm in the international private client world. I am confident that given their efforts to date, they are the right individuals to continue the success story that is Saffery Champness’s business in Switzerland.”
