American Century Investments has made a number of senior appointments in the Australia and Asia-Pacific region.

Tom Clapham was appointed as head of APAC and would relocate to Sydney following the retirement of Tony Archer after 13 years. He would join from Aviva Investors where he was head of Asia, client group.

Former head of Australia & New Zealand, Elizabeth Trinh, would now become head of Hong Kong and South East Asia, a newly-created role by the firm.

Michelle Kidd was appointed as head of Australia and New Zealand institutional business while Alastair McKibbin would be head of Australian wholesale business, relocating from New York to Sydney.

Jamie Downing, global head of institutional business, said: “We have long seen the APAC region as an important market in our growth strategy and in the past few years have seen increasing interest across our boutiques, particularly in our actively managed equity and fixed income offerings.

“These appointments will ensure we continue to build strong and enduring relationships with investors in these markets, both institutional and wholesale, at a time when the skills and experience of our investment teams are increasingly valued by clients.”
