Bloomberg interviewed me on bankers returning to Dubai. I said Dubai offers a lot for families and business owners — Switzerland is lovely, but slower paced and has more tax.

I was quoted in Bloomberg Law on why Wall Street is still adding Gulf teams despite wartime M&A — and why candidates are more selective on security.

Thankful for another conversation with Bloomberg this week — and to Laura Gardner Cuesta for the dialogue.

@asianpvtbanker@UBS When half of new money already comes from clients under 50, the scarce hire isn't the RM with the biggest trailing book — it's the one whose own network skews that age. Expect Greater China comp packages to start pricing in referral pipeline, not just day-one AUM.
@asianpvtbanker@PictetGroup A 'market leader' hire, not a straight RM lift — Pictet is buying standalone Credit Suisse-era HK seniority to anchor a bench. That pedigree is now scattered across UBS and boutiques, scarce enough that it comes with a multi-year guarantee, not a signing bonus.
@asianpvtbanker@EFGInt Product specialist hires rarely trigger second-wave departures like RM team lifts do — no client book to fight over, no guarantee to match. This reads as EFG building Singapore manufacturing capacity, not raiding a rival's franchise.
