J.P. Morgan Private Bank welcomes Selim Elgen as Managing Director and Market Head for the United Arab Emirates. Selim is a seasoned private banking professional with a 30-plus-year tenure at Citigroup. He joins the bank’s Dubai office, where he will be leading service offerings to ultra-high-net-worth clients and family offices across the UAE and the broader Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
