The head of wealth management and senior executive officer for UBS' Dubai branch, Cedric Lizin, has resigned from the post after being in the role for two years, this publication can confirm. Lizin had previously been at Credit Suisse and Barclays.

UBS appointed Lizin in September 2017; before this, he had worked for a decade at Barclays Wealth and was chief operating officer for Barclays Wealth Management in Singapore.
