Altinger replaces Emilio Gonzalez, Group CEO of Pendal Group, JOHCM’s Australian-listed parent company, who has been acting JOHCM CEO since August 2018 and will now return to Sydney. Altinger’s appointment is subject to approval by the FCA.
Gonzalez said: “Ms Altinger’s leadership roles, cross-border experience and expertise in wealth and asset management made her the standout candidate for the role. She is a strong and proven leader and the right person to continue to drive the next stage of the company’s growth as we add new investment strategies and build upon the success of our existing investment teams. She will be a great fit for JOHCM’s investment-led culture.”
Altinger commented: “I am delighted to be joining a company with such a strong investment pedigree. I am a passionate believer in the merits of high conviction active asset management and the role it can play in long-term wealth creation.”
In recognition of the specific opportunities presented by the US market and its now sizeable US presence, JOHCM is in the process of recruiting a CEO for its US business, which is based in Boston and New York.
