LGT said it is hiring a senior private banker from Credit Suisse and an investment specialist from Falcon Private Bank. The Liechtenstein private bank is bolstering its U.K. team following the acquisition earlier this year of Vestra Wealth.

The Vaduz-based bank said it is hiring Andrew Cattle from Credit Suisse, where he is currently specialized in finance professionals and entrepreneurs. A former investment banker, he will focus on high net worth individuals in the U.K. for LGT.

The bank also said it is hiring Noel Craven to its institutional team led by partner Jacqueline Crawley. He will advise on top-down asset allocation and implementing investment strategies in view of the macroeconomic outlook of LGT for its portfolios, as well as tap his network of business and ultra-high net worth contacts to establish his own client list.

Formerly with Clariden, he was most recently Falcon Private Bank's U.K. arm as head of investment solutions.

«Our core focus on looking after the client as a long-term relationship is resonating with clients in an environment where many global banks are restructuring their wealth management proposition,» LGT Vestra chairman David Scott said in a statement.
