Italian asset manager Azimut Group has hired Andrew Ang as head of institutional and wholesale Asia.
Based in Singapore, he reports to Maroun Jalkh, CEO of Azimut (ME) and head of institutional and wholesale for the Middle East and Asia.
Ang most recently worked at KraneShares and has also worked at UOB, Pioneer Investments, SHK Financial, Merrill Lynch Banque Suisse and JO Hambro Capital Management.
“Andrew will be the first member of the institutional and wholesale team to be physically based in Asia. This client segment was predominantly covered from the UAE,” said Jalkh.
“We are happy to capitalise on Azimut’s 10 years presence in Singapore to effectively showcase the range of Azimut products, including our growing private markets strategies.”
