Crypto-Bank Snags Former Credit Suisse Executive to Strengthen Leadership Team

Amina Bank Welcomes Credit Suisse Veteran Alessandro Manfron

Amina Bank has appointed Alessandro Manfron as the chief of staff to the chief client officer for the EMEA region, a move that marks a significant shift in his career. Announcing his new role on LinkedIn, Manfron confirmed he began this position this month, reporting directly to Markus Menzl, the chief client officer EMEA.

A Wealth of Experience

Manfron brings over 20 years of experience from Credit Suisse-UBS, where he held diverse leadership roles. His recent position was as the team head of USG Evolution and an executive director at UBS in Zurich. Before this, he directed high net worth individual segment development at Credit Suisse, where he played pivotal roles such as chief of staff for premium clients and head of business management for premium clientele.

It’s safe to say that his journey in finance has been anything but mundane, offering him a treasure trove of insights into wealth management that he’ll now channel into the burgeoning realm of crypto banking.

Embracing a New Challenge in Crypto

Reflecting on this transition, Manfron expressed his enthusiasm: “After 20 years at Credit Suisse and UBS, it’s time to start a new chapter. I’m excited to join Amina Bank, a regulated Swiss crypto bank, as Chief of Staff to the Chief Client Officer EMEA. I truly look forward to merging my background in UHNWI and SFO wealth management with the innovation and energy of crypto banking.”

Broadening Horizons

Interestingly, Manfron’s move to Amina isn’t the only shift in his professional landscape—he has also recently accepted a position on the advisory board of TheBiTechnologies, a private equity and venture capital firm. This speaks volumes about his commitment to staying at the forefront of financial innovation.
