The current CFO, Evie Kostakis, has held the position since 2022. She is the most senior member of the executive team to remain in place through a series of management changes that began after the bank disclosed substantial losses and writedowns linked to risky lending practices.

At this time, Julius Baer has not responded to inquiries regarding the potential replacement. Evie Kostakis also did not provide an immediate comment on the reports of the executive search.
