Perpetual has appointed Ben Daly as its new director of institutional business with a focus on the Australian market. Mr Daly has “extensive experience” in the investment industry and has previously held senior leadership roles at T. Rowe Price and Goldman Sachs.
“Strengthening our distribution capability in Australia and overseas remains essential as we look to build on our existing presence and extend the reach of Trillium and Barrow Hanley,” said global distribution head Adam Quaife.
“In addition, we are now seeing a rotation to recovery and an uptick in client search activity for our broad capabilities, so the team is now very well placed and well-resourced to further bring our strategies to market going forward.”
Perpetual has also appointed Nicole Aubrey as senior manager for national accounts in Australia. Ms Aubrey has 18 years’ experience in financial services and has held roles with HRL Morrison, Pendal Group and Investors Mutual. Rob Kenyon has also been appointed head of intermediary and business management for the Americas, based in Greater New York.
“As Perpetual continues to accelerate its global distribution strategy across different capabilities and geographic markets, these appointments in both Australia and the US, are key in helping us open up new markets and opportunities,” Mr Quaife said.
“With impressive track records and deep expertise across institutional and retail markets, it’s great to have Ben, Nicole and Rob join our distribution team of now more than 70, to further extend our reach in Australia and globally over time.”
