It is interesting to note that his departure comes with the Brexit deadline just around the corner. According to a report from Bloomberg, which cited people familiar with the matter Credit Suisse is planning on moving 250 positions from the UK to offices in Europe, with their focus mainly on Spain.
These 250 jobs are only under the first phase of the Swiss firm’s Brexit plans, and even more jobs could be moved from London to other cities within the remaining EU member states. According to sources, the firm originally had its sights set on Paris, but after talks with local regulators and government officials, the bank decided to go another way.
However, it is not clear why Shillaker has departed the bank and if it had anything to do with Brexit. Neither Credit Suisse nor Shillaker have reportedly responded to media requests for comment on the move.
