Daniela Klasen-Martin named new head of RBS International Luxembourg

Daniela has spent the last two years as CEO of Credit Suisse Fund Management S.A. and Global Head of Fund Platform Services within the Asset Management Division.

Olly Holbourn, Chief Executive Officer, RBS International, said:

“Luxembourg is an important jurisdiction as we deepen and broaden our relationships with customers, particularly in the alternative funds market, and I am delighted Daniela is joining us to help continue our sustainable growth.”

In her most recent role, Daniela was responsible for leading the Credit Suisse in-house fund management company and developing the European hub for asset management.

Daniela has also sat on several fund and fund management boards, including at CSSF-regulated technology company FundsDLT. This is in addition to positions at the Association of the Luxembourg Fund Industry (ALFI) and the Luxembourg Directors' Association (ILA).

Before moving to Credit Suisse, Daniela spent 11 years at private equity and real estate firm Crestbridge where she established their fund management and corporate services operation in Luxembourg, which had previously only operated in Jersey.

Daniela Klasen-Martin, incoming Luxembourg Country Head, RBS International, said:

“I am delighted to join RBS International and to continue building on the foundations left by Ian.

“With my knowledge of the industry and of the fund ecosystem, I am looking forward to fostering continued growth and further expanding our footprint in Luxembourg.”

Ian will stay with the bank until at least the end of April next year and will work closely with Daniela to complete a full handover whilst the regulatory approval process concludes.
