ZURICH (Reuters) - Credit Suisse (SIX:CSGN) Wealth Management division's new boss Francesco De Ferrari (NYSE:RACE) has laid out a new structure from March 1 that revamps its business areas for Europe and Latin America and names Christian Huber as chief operating officer.

De Ferrari was appointed as CEO of the Swiss bank's wealth management business in December. This followed Credit Suisse's plans to shift towards wealth management and curb investment banking.

Huber is now chief operating officer of the Swiss private banking business.

Robert Cielen will head the business area Europe combining Europe and Emerging Europe, and Marcello Chilov will run Latin America, combining LatAm and Brazil, the bank said on Monday.
