AustralianSuper beefs up in-house investment team
Mark Delaney
Australia’s largest superannuation fund, AustralianSuper, has strengthened its in-house investment team with three new appointments.
AustralianSuper chief investment officer Mark Delaney said that while the fund had increased its in-house capacity, it would continue to work closely with its investment advisers Frontier Investment Consulting and JANA.
Delaney said AustralianSuper had appointed former Funds SA investment manager Richard Dalidowicz as a senior manager for Australian international equities, while former Alpha Investment Management analyst Suzanne Findley would be working in the unlisted market areas.
He said former Russell Investments Group research team leader Terry Charalambous would join AustralianSuper as an unlisted investment manager focusing on private equity.
