BT Financial Group nabs Mehmet
BT Financial Group has appointed former ING Investment Management (INGIM) senior portfolio manager Ron Mehmet as portfolio manager, fixed interest.
Mehmet was with INGIM for 12 years, where he worked as a portfolio manager for Australian and global bonds and real estate investment trusts in the firm’s multi-manager group.
He announced his resignation from the firm on Thursday and will leave on 25 June.
In this new role, Mehmet will be responsible for managing Advance’s interest in multi-manager funds.
Announcing the appointment, head of Advance Investment Solutions Patrick Farrell said Mehmet’s experience and deep knowledge of the managers in the fixed interest space were a welcome addition.
Mehmet’s appointment will allow current portfolio manager, fixed interest/economist, Andrew Dowie to concentrate on his economist role on a full-time basis.
