Shifting Landscape: Eisenschenk Moves to RBI
A notable progress discussed at the conference was the future of Kepler Cheuvreux in Austria.Roman Eisenschenk, the long-time Head of Sales, is transitioning to Raiffeisen Bank International AG. This move is anticipated to have an impact on smaller listed companies in Austria, perhaps leading to reduced investor coverage and visibility.
