Credit Suisse has named Nita Patel as its chief compliance officer — the third executive to take the role within two years — adding another Goldman Sachs alumni to its upper ranks.

Patel will take over as chief compliance officer at Credit Suisse on 1 November, the bank said in a statement. She succeeds Rafael Lopez Lorenzo, who took the job last year and is stepping down for family reasons.
