Bank Vontobel Europe AG appoints Anton Hötzl as Chief Operating Officer

Bank Vontobel Europe AG has appointed Anton Hötzl as Chief Operating Officer. He succeeds Andreas Heinrichs, who is stepping down from his operational responsibilities after more than 25 years at Vontobel.

Effective on November 1, 2024, Bank Vontobel Europe AG will be led by a three-members board, including Thomas Fischer, Head of Private Clients Germany, René Weinhold, Head Institutional Clients Germany, and Anton Hötzl, COO and Head Structured Solutions & Treasury Europe.

Anton Hötzl joined Vontobel in Frankfurt in January 2008 as legal counsel for product management. During his career at Vontobel, he held various positions in business development in Frankfurt and Zurich. Since 2020, he has been responsible for the Structured Solutions Europe division in Frankfurt. He has been a member of the Executive Board of Bank Vontobel Europe AG since 2021 and a Managing Director of Vontobel Financial Products GmbH since 2013. Before joining Vontobel, Anton Hötzl worked at the Landwirtschaftliche Rentenbank.

Andreas Heinrichs joined Vontobel in 1999 from Sal. Oppenheim Jr. & Cie., where he was Head of Equities. At Vontobel he built up the equity sales team in Germany. He has been a member of the Executive Board of Bank Vontobel Europe AG since 2009 and led the brokerage business. On September 1, 2020, Andreas Heinrichs took over the role of Chief Operating Officer in Munich.

“We extend our heartfelt appreciation to Andreas for his remarkable 25-year tenure, during which he has been instrumental in building our presence in Germany. His passion and commitment have been a driving force behind our shared success,” said Brian Fischer, Chairman of the Supervisory Board.

The new Executive Board composition underscores Vontobel’s future growth plans in Germany: “As a member of the Executive Board over the past years, Anton Hötzl has successfully managed the business with structured securities in Europe. As we embark on the next stage of growth, we look forward to the specialized expertise of Anton Hötzl as Chief Operating Officer,” added Brian Fischer.
