Raymond Baer, chairman of Julius Baer Group, is looking forward to April 12 as "one of those days every 30 years or so when really fundamental issues get addressed." That's when Julius Baer's shareholders will gather at Zurich's Kongresszentrum and are expected to approve the creation of a unitary share structure that will reduce the Baer family's 54 percent voting power to match its economic value of 18 percent.
