Mirabaud (Middle East) Limited has appointed Rajiv Philip as the company’s new chief operating officer (COO).

Philip will also act as the designated compliance and anti-money laundering officer for the firm at the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).

“Rajiv brings to Mirabaud over a decade of accounting, financial and banking experience from the likes of KPMG, ABN AMRO and HSBC in virtually all of the major professional services disciplines,” said Mirabaud (Middle East) chief executive officer Gilles Rollet.

“His experience in the Middle East region will provide our international and regional investors confidence that the investment team overseeing their assets is now even deeper with a well laid out infrastructure. We are glad to have Rajiv on board,” he said.

Philip, a chartered accountant, comes to Mirabaud from HSBC Private Bank, where he was Senior Manager, Compliance, for their Middle Eastern business based in Dubai. – TradeArabia News Service
