Deutsche Bank has appointed Dominique Jooris as head of wealth solutions coverage for Asia-Pacific, a new role in which he will drive coverage of the region’s burgeoning number of wealthy individuals and families.

Asia-Pacific, already home to more billionaires than any other region, continues to be the fastest-growing region in the world for wealth accumulation, and has been for the last 20 years.

Given this dramatic wealth accumulation, many Asian families are institutionalizing their wealth management through more efficient structures and vehicles, primarily via family offices.

Jooris was most recently CEO of Bank Pictet in Singapore, prior to which he has held a number of senior debt capital market roles, including 11 years at Goldman Sachs in both Asia, ex Japan, and the Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region.
