RARE appoints regional manager
RARE infrastructure has made a new appointment to meet what it says is growing demand for infrastructure investing and the company’s expanding product range.
It said it had appointed Jenny Pang as regional manager for NSW, ACT and SA with a brief to expand client relationships across boutique advisory practices and key dealer groups, as well as educating stakeholders regarding the infrastructure sector.
RARE head of Australian retail, Steve Williams, said the company had observed significant funds flow into the asset class as advisers and investors embraced the attractive risk return characteristics infrastructure brought to portfolio construction.
“We are convinced this trend will continue well into the future as the asset class has very attractive, long-dated investment characteristics, for an ageing demographic living in a constantly changing world,” he said.
The announcement said Pang brought a wealth of experience to RARE with a proven record of establishing and growing long-term client relationships.
Pang has previously held senior positions at K2 Asset Management, Zurich, BT Funds Management and Commerce Asset Managers in Kuala Lumpur.
