Currently, Malhotra holds responsibility for Julius Baer’s global India franchise, covering both onshore and non-resident Indians, in addition to overseeing operations in Japan and serving Asian clients from Switzerland and Japan. 

He joined Julius Baer in 2021, having previously served as the head of South-East Asia for the regional private banking business at JP Morgan. His professional background also includes roles at Merrill Lynch and Citigroup.

“India has been a significant growth market for Julius Baer. I aim to accelerate our momentum in this critical market and beyond by focusing on our core strengths - holistic advice, client centricity and dedication to service excellence.”
