CEO levels up tech with appointment of Chief Digital and Information Officer
Executing on one of five strategic imperatives, our CEO has welcomed Mike Dargan to the Group Executive Board as Chief Digital and Information Officer.
Mike Dargan joined the Group Executive Board as Chief Digital and Information Officer (CDIO) on May 1, 2021. The new CDIO organization will play a crucial role in further driving technology to become a true differentiator for UBS and replaces the former Group Chief Operating Officer (GCOO) function.
The appointment shows the high priority UBS gives to technology and digitalization which is also reflected in the fact that making technology our differentiator is one of our five strategic imperatives.
Mike has been Head of Group Technology since he joined UBS in 2016. Prior to that, he was CIO for CIB at Standard Chartered Bank, Head Corporate Strategy & M&A, EMEA and PacRim for Merrill Lynch and Head CIB, Asia-Pacific for Oliver Wyman.
