UBS Group AG promoted female bankers to key positions at the top of world’s largest wealth manager, broadening the pool of potential candidates to eventually succeed Chief Executive Officer Sergio Ermotti and bringing more diversity to the board.

Chief Operating Officer Sabine Keller-Busse continued her steady ascent within the bank by taking on the additional responsibility of President of Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Suni Harford, who spent almost a quarter of a century at Citigroup Inc. before joining UBS in 2017, joins Keller-Busse on the executive board as head of asset management. Both positions were held by Ulrich Koerner, who leaves next year.
