Christian Reuss took over as CEO of Scoach Switzerland Ltd and Scoach Europa AG, Frankfurt, with effect from 1 June 2009. Reuss succeeds Michael Jung, who is still acting CEO.
He was previously employed at Goldman Sachs in Zurich and Frankfurt where, most recently, he headed the Public Distribution division for Switzerland, Germany, Austria and Italy. Prior to that appointment he worked in the areas of Equity Derivates Flow Sales and Institutional Research Sales in Frankfurt and London, also for Goldman Sachs.
For Michael Jung, the handover to new CEO Reuss marks the end of his commitment to Scoach. He will now be taking some time off before adopting a new career focus. Jung has thus asked the Board of Directors not to extend his contract, which runs until the end of the year. The Board of Directors has acknowledged his request, and extends its thanks for his hard work in establishing Scoach so successfully. Michael Jung joined the Deutsche Brse group in 1994. He has served on the Management Boards of Scoach Europe AG and Scoach Switzerland Ltd since 2007.
“In the two years since its foundation, Scoach has established itself as Europe’s biggest marketplace for certificates and warrants. Our international outlook, the broad range of products we offer and our client-focused services also give us a firm foundation for further growth. This is something we will be driving forward with our partners in the future”, says Reuss.
