The chief executive of BT Investment Management, Dirk Morris, will resign on October 1, at the end of the company’s financial year.

“Having seen BT through its public offering and through the first year-and-a-half as a listed company, I have decided to step aside,” Morris said.

“We have just presented the strategic plan for the company to the board, and as a time commitment of around three to five years is intrinsic to this plan, I have decided that now is an appropriate time for both the company and for me personally to signal my intention to leave,” he said.

Chairman of BT Brian Scullin said Morris had steered the company through one of the most turbulent periods in equity markets, and was integral to the creation of BT’s multi-boutique model and strong fund performance.
