Former Deutsche CIO joins Bennelong
Former Deutsche Bank chief investment officer Dr George Nassios has moved to join Melbourne-based Bennelong Wealth Partners as its new Chief Investment Officer.
Nassios' appointment was confirmed this week by Bennelong Wealth Partners chief executive Fiona Rowland, who said he would be responsible for leading and managing the company's investment activities including capital market activity, developing model portfolios and providing investment commentary.
Prior to joining Deutsche Bank in 2011, Nassios was the CIO and held senior investment management positions at one of Australia's leading multifamily offices as well as at National Australia Bank and BNP Paribas.
Rowland said that the Bennelong Group had been focused on identifying an institutional-grade CIO with deep financial markets experience who was also able to provide the high quality insights and communication that wealth advisers rely on in terms of macro-economic trends and global markets.
