Harald Rieger transfers from DWS to Union Investment.
Harald Rieger, the former sales chief of DWS, the asset management arm of Deutsche Bank, is set to join Union Investment Institutional. This change comes as Rieger is expected to depart from DWS earlier, potentially starting at Union Investment sooner.
Rieger has been leading the institutional sales for DWS in Germany and Austria since 2019, a position he held following his tenure at Deutsche Bank. However, the specific reasons for his departure from DWS and the identity of his successor remain undisclosed.
At Union Investment, Rieger will not only be leading the institutional business but will also be part of the management team. The exact role and official title for Rieger at Union Investment have not been specified yet, but it is known that he will be taking over the position previously held by André Haagmann.
Haagmann is set to join the management board of Union Asset Management Holding next March. The specific start date for his tenure at Union Investment Institutional is not provided. Union Investment's institutional business leadership will commence for Rieger by August 2022 at the latest, pending BaFin approval.
Gero Schomann is now responsible for the sales region of Germany and Austria at DWS. The text does not provide details about the reasons for Haagmann's departure from Union Investment.
Rieger has been with DWS since 2007, holding various responsible positions before leading the institutional sales. Before joining DWS, he held various positions at Deutsche Bank from 1997.
