Under new leadership and a broader investment offering, Rothschild & Co is further developing its business in Germany and strengthening its support for clients.

Rothschild & Co has appointed two new executive managers to lead its Wealth Management business in Germany: Hanno Roth, who has been with the organisation for 23 years and most recently led the Multi-Family Office business in Frankfurt, and Dirk Wehmhöner, who joined five years ago and currently oversees the offices in Hamburg and Düsseldorf.

After five years at the helm of Wealth Management in Germany, Henrik Herr will be leaving Rothschild & Co. He has played an important role in advancing the development and positioning of the Wealth Management business in Germany in recent years.

Laurent Gagnebin, CEO of Rothschild & Co Bank AG, the parent company of Rothschild & Co Wealth Management in Germany, shared: “Germany is a key market for Rothschild & Co, and we have expanded our business here in recent years, with solid growth and new offices in Düsseldorf and Hamburg alongside Frankfurt. With Hanno Roth and Dirk Wehmhöner, two experienced leaders from within our team taking together responsibility for the Wealth Management business in Germany, we intend to continue to do so. These appointments reflect the continuity, client focus and entrepreneurial mindset, which are core values of Rothschild & Co. By reinforcing our leadership team and broadening our investment portfolio, we are laying the foundations to support our clients with greater flexibility and more personalised solutions. We would like to express our sincere thanks to Henrik Herr for his dedication and wish him all the best for his future endeavours.”

In parallel, Rothschild & Co is broadening its investment offering to include enhanced wealth management strategies that allow greater flexibility to our clients. It will enable the integration of investments in private markets and alternative asset classes. Clients will gain access to tailored solutions and can diversify their portfolio even more effectively.
