Nikola Vuletić, Chairman of the Executive Board of UniCredit Bank Serbia, has been elected as the new President of the Serbian Bankers Association (UBS) for a two-year term.
Vuletić, who previously served as Vice President of the UBS Board, brings over two decades of experience in banking, having led sectors in corporate finance, retail, and risk management. His leadership is expected to drive further progress in Serbia’s banking system.
In addition to his role at UniCredit, Vuletić is a member of the board of the Italian-Serbian Chamber of Commerce and the Executive Board of NALED (National Alliance for Local Economic Development). He holds a degree in International Management from the Faculty of Economics and has participated in numerous international professional development programs.
Darko Popović, President of the Executive Board of Banca Intesa, has been appointed Vice President of the UBS Board. Popović, a veteran banker with over 20 years of experience, has been on the Executive Board of Banca Intesa for more than 15 years.
The new leadership will take office on 1 October, with the UBS thanking outgoing President Predrag Mihajlović of OTP Bank Serbia for his valuable contributions over two terms. Under Mihajlović’s leadership, UBS worked closely with the National Bank of Serbia and the Ministry of Finance to address key financial challenges, including foreign currency loans, banking fees, and the sector’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
