Pendal Group has appointed Nick Good as chief executive of J O Hambro Capital Management (JOHCM) operations in the US.
The hire followed the decision to appoint dedicated CEOs for the JOHCM business in UK, Europe and Asia, and a CEO for the US business to support growth in offshore markets – Alexandra Altinger was previously appointed CEO of JOHCM’s UK, Europe and Asia business in July.
Emilio Gonzalez, group CEO of Pendal Group, said the US region was a key growth engine for the company.
“Building on our success to date, we believe there are significant opportunities to continue to materially grow our funds under management in the region,” Gonzalez said.
Good was most recently executive vice president, chief growth and strategy officer at State Street Corporation where he was responsible for setting overall business strategy and leading corporate development.
Prior to that, he was co-head of State Street Global Advisors Global ETF business, with primary responsibility for North America and Latin America.
