Vontobel Asset Management adds two senior relationship managers in support of the firm’s expanding multi-boutique capabilities designed to meet the needs of institutional investors.
Vontobel Asset Management appointed Jeff Barrow and Brian Engel as relationship managers leading the Southeast and Midwest regions, respectively. Together, Jeff and Brian bring 30 years of experience in financial services. Jeff joins from DiMeo Schneider & Associates, where he led the firm’s regional consulting and new business efforts. Brian joins from BMO Global Asset Management, where he was responsible for expanding the distribution of solutions to institutional investors in the Midwest. Jeff and Brian will report to Amit Mukadam, Head of North America Institutional Distribution.
To provide differentiated solutions to its investor base, Vontobel has strengthened its institutional platform to include an insurance channel, a dedicated focus in Canada with in-market expertise, and a dedicated consultant relations effort focused on fixed income solutions. In addition to the Quality Growth Boutique, well known for its global equity expertise, Vontobel Asset Management’s North American platform includes quality fixed income solutions from TwentyFour Asset Management.
“With a 35-year foothold in North America and a near 100-year history in investment management, we look forward to delivering our deep expertise and global footprint to more clients in the region. The enhanced distribution platform lays the groundwork to introduce additional solutions,” said Thomas Wittwer, Chief Executive Officer North America.
“Our equity and fixed income offerings provide investors differentiated actively managed solutions that aim to deliver strong and repeatable risk-adjusted returns,” said Amit Mukadam. “Jeff and Brian are great additions who complement the team and share our client-centric and investment-led culture.”
