- The Swiss Trade Association (SGV) is investigating allegations of plagiarism against its new director Henrique Schneider.
- The association commissions an external expert opinion for this purpose.
- This should give Schneider the opportunity to comment on this.
The investigation should be completed before he takes office. The SGV writes in a Tuesday notice published on its website. The investigation should be conducted by an independent, recognized person, as the SGV writes after a board meeting.
Big accusations
In the run-up, today’s deputy SGV director Henrique Schneider was confronted with serious allegations of plagiarism. As research by “NZZ am Sonntag” shows, he is said to have faked two professorships and thus, among other things, embellished his CV.
For example, Schneider stated that he studied economics in Switzerland, China and the USA, but there is no evidence for this. In addition, the authors of his publications contain academic titles that are not correct.
