Tyndall Asset Management has restructured its product and distribution capabilities to focus on opportunities emerging in institutional, intermediary and Asian markets, as well as expand its investment product range, it said.
Matt Russell's current role as head of institutional sales was usurped by a newly created position as head of sales and marketing across all sectors.
Three new roles were created in Tyndall's institutional business: Nicole Krebs was appointed relationship manager – institutional business, while Chris Briggs and Chris Trent were appointed as senior business development managers – institutional business.
Previously head of retail, Andrew Julius has a new role as national manager – researcher relationships, to focus on Tyndall's associations with research houses, asset consultants, private banks and self-managed super funds (SMSFs).
The company's retail activities have been expanded into a private wealth business reflecting the increased significance of intermediaries including private banks and SMSFs, Tyndall said.
Aaron Russell will leave his position as national key account manager – NSW, to head Tyndall's private wealth activities as Tyndall's national sales manager.
Russell said the company could now focus on developing products and services that better suited clients' needs, with a distribution structure that recognised the converging interests of asset consultants, institutional investors, platforms and intermediaries.
"The restructure recognises the need to meet expectations of institutional investors and a greater variety of intermediaries, as well as enabling Tyndall to take full advantage of opportunities in Asia created by the relationship with Nikko AM," Tyndall managing director Mike Davis said.
Nikko AM purchased Tyndall in March this year.
Davis said the changes would take advantage of synergies within the company and expand its distribution channels beyond the traditional channels of institutional and retail.
