Johann Griener
Johann Griener has worked at Erste Asset Management in Sales Retail since 1 January 2001. In this function he supported for example the Sparkasse banks in Austria, with a current focus on Upper Austria. His scope of duties includes the servicing, training, training and education of Sparkasse employees who work in the securities field. This means creating and holding presentations in the local branches and in Erste Asset Management for the purpose of promoting sales of Erste Asset Management GmbH and Erste Immobilien KAG funds. He also supports the Sparkasse banks (Austria-wide) in their own investments (nostro business). In addition, Griener is developing numerous publications for internal and external use. The “1x1 of Investment Funds” that he wrote is found in all of the branch offices of Erste Bank and the Sparkasse banks as basic reading and an introduction for customers on how investment funds work.
Griener began his career in 1988 as an employee at the bank counter in a local Sparkasse bank. There he learned the banking business, from a savings book to loans to investment operations. After a few years at the Sparkasse, he decided to continue his studies at the Vienna University of Economics and Business, with a focus on “banks” and “securities”. After completing his master’s degree, he remained loyal to the Sparkasse sector and has been working at Erste Asset Management since.
His motto: “Only a day with laughter is a good day”
