BT appoints new head of income and fixed interest
BT Investment Management (BTIM) has announced the appointment of Vimal Gor as head of income and fixed interest. This appointment follows the consolidation of BTIM’s cash, credit and fixed interest resources into a single, expanded income boutique, which was announced to the market in March.
BTIM chief executive officer Emilio Gonzalez said it was pleasing that the best person identified for the role was an internal candidate.
“Vimal has extensive experience in fixed interest markets, having worked for one of the largest active fixed income teams in the UK.”
Prior to joining BTIM in November 2009, Vimal spent 10 years at Aviva Investors in London where he was responsible for the management of the Global Aggregate Bond portfolios.
Vimal said he was thrilled to have the opportunity to head up one of the boutiques at BTIM.
“Cash and fixed income already account for 30 per cent of total funds under management at BTIM. I am to build on our existing strong capabilities to develop what is an important growth avenue for us."
