UBS’ regional head is a Northern powerhouse

UBS Wealth Management has expanded the role of Karan Sejpal, already regional head for the North West, to include the Yorkshire region.

Sejpal has over 10 years’ experience working in wealth management, having previously held positions at Credit Suisse and Barclays Wealth.

He has spent the past two years as regional head for the North West at UBS Wealth Management based in Manchester and will now be taking on a dual role, splitting his time equally between the Leeds and Manchester offices.  

Sejpal said: “I am looking forward to heading up the Leeds office. Given their proximity, our Manchester and Leeds offices already work closely together, so it is a natural move for me to oversee both.

“As the Northern Powerhouse project highlights the economic significance and indeed potential of the North of England, it is an exciting time to be working with clients – many of whom are business owners – in Yorkshire and the North West.”

UBS has also appointed Jane Booth, who joins from joining from Mills & Reeve as associate client adviser in UBS Wealth Management’s North West office.
