At yesterday’s Annual General Meeting of SIX, the shareholders elected André Helfenstein to the Board of Directors.

André Helfenstein has many years of national and international management experience in the finance and banking sector. The 53-year-old Swiss and British citizen is CEO of Credit Suisse (Switzerland) Ltd. and a member of the Executive Board of Credit Suisse Group AG.

He holds a master’s degree in business from the University of St. Gallen and a certificate in psychology and sociology from the Université de la Sorbonne in Paris.
