AllianceBernstein boosts team
AllianceBernstein has beefed up its Asia-Pacific Fixed Income team with the appointment of Yufeng Liu as a quantitative analyst.
Liu (most recently a research analyst for Deutsche Bank Asset Management in San Francisco) joined the team in mid-January, and is based in Melbourne.
Director of the AllianceBernstein Asia-Pacific Fixed Income team Hayden Briscoe said he believed Yufeng's experience would be a considerable asset to the company as it moved to develop its pipeline of Asia-themed investment strategies.
Liu is the fourth new hire to AllianceBernstein's Asia-Pacific Fixed Income team since September 2011. The company last month announced that former ING Investment Management head of rates strategies, Brad Gibson, had joined as a portfolio manager.
The company describes the Asia-Pacific Fixed Income team as being an integrated part of AllianceBernstein's global fixed-income research and portfolio management platform.
It said the team's expansion supports the development of the firm's regionally-themed investment ideas.
