Quintet Private Bank, founded 75 years ago in the Grand Duchy, announced today the appointment of Stéphane Pardini as Head of Wealth Management, Luxembourg. Pardini brings to Quintet Luxembourg 25 years of experience advising high net worth individuals and families, leading teams and driving organizational growth. 

Pardini, who reports to Quintet Group CEO Chris Allen, most recently served as Managing Director at J. Safra Sarasin (Luxembourg) and of the firm’s French branch, which he was instrumental in establishing. He earlier served for nearly two decades at Edmond de Rothschild, rising to the position of Deputy CEO of Edmond de Rothschild (Europe), based in Luxembourg.

Pardini, who is French, began his career at EY and then UBS. He holds a degree in Accounting & Financial Management from the Grenoble École de Management and a master’s from HEC Entrepreneurs, the French business school.

In parallel, Quintet announced that Thomas Klein has been appointed Group Head of Asset Servicing & Financial Intermediaries. In his new role, which encompasses responsibilities across Europe and the UK, he will also report to Allen.

Klein, a German national, joined Quintet in 2021 to head its Luxembourg-based Asset Servicing business. More recently, he assumed additional interim responsibility for Quintet Luxembourg’s Wealth Management activities.  

Before joining Quintet, Klein was Head of Service Delivery, Asset Servicing, and member of the Executive Business Committee at UBS Luxembourg. Earlier, he served as Chief Risk Officer at UBS Luxembourg, with responsibilities extending across European branches. Klein, who pursued his studies at the Frankfurt School of Finance and the University of Trier, began his career as a private client advisor.

“We are very pleased to welcome Stéphane to Quintet Luxembourg, where he will drive the ongoing growth of our private client business, serving families here in the Grand Duchy and, from Luxembourg, across Europe,” Allen said. “At the same time, we are delighted to announce Thomas’s new responsibilities, reflecting the close alignment between our Asset Servicing and Financial Intermediaries business lines and his outstanding leadership over the past four years.”
