Dubai-headquartered financial services group GSB has appointed Jon Urquhart as managing partner and co-head of GSB Private as it expands in the UK.
Urquhart has spent 18 years in financial services, most recently as director of mortgages at Mantra Group.
Ross Whatnall, group CEO and co-founder of GSB, said: "With GSB now well established in the Middle East as a leading financial services and wealth management business, we are laser-focused on replicating this success in the UK and Europe.
"Jon has been nothing short of phenomenal during his career, broking some of the biggest and most dynamic deals in the private client space."
GSB further said its expansion into the UK is part of the business's strategy to offer its holistic wealth management services not only to expatriates in the UAE but also to those based in or returning to the UK and Europe.
