Atrium appoints investment specialist



Atrium Investment Management has tapped former JANA consultant and Rest Super manager, Turab Bank, to join its investment solutions team.
He would take up the role of investment specialist where he would work with advisers and clients to enhance portfolio construction and investment selection.
In this role, Bank would work alongside Atrium’s head of client investment solutions, David Dix, towards supporting and educating advisers in their understanding of risk targeted investing and how it can deliver preferred investment outcomes for clients.
He would also work closely with Atrium’s institutional accounts including not-for-profits and charities.
“It’s great to have someone of Turab’s calibre join Atrium at a critical time in our business growth,” said Dix.
“As we have taken on more clients, we believe that adviser education is paramount and our Investment Specialist function is a critical component of helping deliver this education to the market.”
Bank had previously been a consultant with JANA Investment Advisers for over a year and a half.
Prior to that, he spent over a decade at Rest Super in a range of roles, most recently as manager of research and investment due diligence.
He had also been at BT Investment Management for four years as an investment risk analyst.
Commenting on his appointment, Bank said: “Joining Atrium as investment specialist was an opportunity too good to pass up, as it combines my background in investment due diligence and research to help advisers and their clients navigate the markets and understand the benefit of a risk-targeted approach.”
Last month, the multi-asset investment manager welcomed former abrdn wholesale director for Queensland, ACT, and NSW, Laura Mitchell, as sales manager.
