PineBridge Pushes Further Into European Market
The investment house is opening an office in Zurich.
Pinebridge
Investments, the asset management house with $80.3 billion in
AuM, is taking aim at the Swiss and Austrian market, opening an
office in Zurich and appointing a manager to lead the
operation.
The firm has appointed Alain Meyer as head of Switzerland and
Austria. Meyer will oversee PineBridge’s expansion into the Swiss
institutional and intermediaries market, it said in a statement
late last week.
Previously, Meyer was head of institutional sales at Aviva
Investors, overseeing operations across Switzerland, Germany and
Austria.
The firm is majority-owned by a subsidiary of Pacific Century
Group (PCG), an Asia-based private investment group.
