Hurrell continues as head of capital markets for Europe, while Beer maintains his dual role as head of global sales and relationship management and CEO of RBC Wealth Management Europe. This integrated approach aims to leverage the bank's expanded footprint after its 2022 purchase of the UK-based firm Brewin Dolphin.
