All sectors will be affected by the programme to be effective by the middle of next year, according to a company statement.

The bank hopes to achieve cost reductions of SFr40 million ($44.4 million) annually.

Julius Bär already implemented similar measures in February and June.

The Zurich-based bank, which reported SFr166 billion assets under management in October, employs around 3,600 staff worldwide.
