Julius Baer has appointed Eric Rosset as Head of its Verbier branch effective 1 January 2026, according to a statement released on Friday. He succeeds Florian Michellod, who has successfully led the branch over the past twelve years.
Michellod will transition into a client advisory role until his planned retirement in mid-2027, the bank said.

From UBS to Julius Baer

Rosset brings more than two decades of experience in wealth management to his new role. He joined the Julius Baer branch in Verbier in 2015 as a Senior Relationship Manager and has played a key role in expanding the branch’s client base and strengthening regional relationships, the bank noted.

Prior to joining Julius Baer, he held various wealth management positions at Swiss financial institutions, including UBS. Eric Rosset is a certified expert in finance and investments.
«Over the past twelve years, Florian Michellod has made a decisive contribution to successfully positioning Julius Baer in Verbier,» said Alain Krüger, Co-Head of Julius Baer Switzerland. «With Eric Rosset, we have found an outstanding successor promoted from within our Verbier team. We are confident that his proven expertise, extensive experience, and strong local network will be of great value in further strengthening our position in the region and supporting our local clients in achieving their financial goals.»

In its home market of Switzerland, Julius Baer operates 12 branches, including five in the French-speaking region, ensuring close and personal service for wealth management clients across the country.
