| By Chris Kennedy |

Russell Investments has picked up another corporate super mandate, having been appointed by Amcor as the investment consultant to its $850 million fund.

“Our consulting practice is experiencing positive growth both globally and locally, and we look forward to exploring ways in which we can assist Amcor in maximising the after-tax and fees returns to its members” said Russell Investments head of investment consulting Greg Liddell.

Russell has also announced the appointments of Karolina Bowler and Vikrant Gupta to its consulting and advisory services group.

Bowler will support Russell’s investment consulting client base and will be responsible for advising on investment policy and strategy, asset allocation, portfolio structuring and manager selection, replacing Martyn Wild who leaves Russell on 30 July.

“Karolina has been with Russell for nearly 10 years now and her impressive actuarial expertise will be a great value add to our expanding client base,” Liddell said.

Gupta joins Russell’s Melbourne office as an analyst, assisting clients in performance strategy advice and risk analysis.
