Asset manager Robeco has poached back an expert from UBS to lead its expanded sustainable investment research team in Zurich.

More Staff Move over from UBS
Her team is being bolstered by analysts Giulia Schettino, Ally Wong and Federico Silvano.
Schettino and Wong are moving from UBS, while Silvano previously worked for Allianz Global Investors.
This is a turnaround for Robeco after years of having people head hunted by the competition. Michael Baldinger, acting head of sustainable investments at UBS, was previously CEO of Robeco subsidiary SAM.
