Effective October 1, 2025, the VBV Pension Fund’s Executive Board will be expanded by one member. In addition to his existing mandate at the pension fund, Christian Reiss has also been appointed to the Executive Board of the pension fund. This completes the consolidation of all customer and sales-related activities under one Executive Board responsibility, initiated at the beginning of the year.
Christian Reiss has been a member of the Management Board of VBV Pension Fund since September 1, 2024. Reiss has more than 25 years of capital market experience and held various management positions at Erste Group Bank AG. Most recently, he held group-wide responsibility for the development and distribution of structured securities products and the brokerage business.
“The consolidation of customer and sales functions across all VBV companies under Christian Reiss is a logical step to further strengthen our market presence and optimally leverage synergies,” explains Andreas Zakostelsky, CEO of the VBV Group. “We began this holistic approach to customer service last year with Christian Reiss by merging the customer and sales functions, and we are now taking further steps toward even better service for our customers.”
Christian Reiss commented on his expanded area of responsibility: “In an increasingly dynamic environment, we want to support our corporate customers even more specifically – with personal support and high service quality. I am delighted to now be able to help shape this path holistically within the VBV Group as a member of the Executive Board.”
As of October 1, 2025, the Management Board of VBV-Vorsorgekasse AG will consist of Andreas Zakostelsky (CEO), Martin Vörös (CFO), Michaela Attermeyer (Member of the Management Board responsible for Investments) and Christian Reiss (Member of the Management Board responsible for Customers & Sales).
