      Investment Associate (Asset Transitions)

      Investment Associate: October 2017 - December 2018Investment Analyst: June 2015 - September 2017Awarded the Global Recognition Award at the start of 2017I was responsible for planning and managing all aspects of asset transition projects for billion pound pension funds. These transitions varied greatly from simple trading requests to complex multi-manager portfolio restructures.The ultimate aim was to preserve our client's capital through designing strategies to maintain market exposure, manage risk and provide a greater opportunity to save on trading costs during the restructuring of their investment portfolios. I also worked on the Transition Manager (TM) Research Team from December 2015, where we were responsible for evaluating each manager's TM offering. Conducting this research allowed us to make suitable recommendations to our clients based on their underlying requirements and the manager's ability to facilitate such projects. Show less
