Cameron Dickman will be responsible for retail and wholesale business development for AMG’s Affiliates, the group said in a statement.
AMG said the group is looking to broaden and deepen its focus in Australia, which currently combines participating Affiliates’ investment expertise with local service for institutional investors located here, as well as for the intermediaries who serve them.
“This approach has been very successful with Australian and New Zealand institutions,” AMG stated.
Mr Dickman has retail funds management marketing experience from his most recent position of general manager, retail at Australian Unity, and was previously head of investment sales at Colonial First State.
He will report to Gregor Rennie, managing director and Australasian region head of AMG.
“Cameron’s appointment will help us get a jump start on developing new client relationships in the retail channel,” Mr Rennie said.
Mr Dickman said institutional investors in the region have taken to the AMG model, which combines the focus of global investment boutiques with a local presence and understanding.
