Mirabaud hires Aviva Investors executive

Elliot Fowles has joined Mirabaud Asset Management's wholesale unit in the United Kingdom from Aviva Investors.

Fowles worked as senior business development director for ten years at Aviva Investors.

Prior to joining Aviva Investors in 2010, he worked as the head of private bank distribution for HSBC Global Asset Management, as well as for Arbuthnot Latham & Co. and DWS Group.

Fowles's hiring at Mirabaud AM is part of ongoing efforts to strengthen the sales and distribution team's dedication to servicing customers in the UK market.

Fowles will join Mirabaud AM on July 18 and will report to Mirabaud AM's head of UK Wholesale, Benjamin Carter.

Carter commented on the appointment: “The addition of such an experienced and practiced professional such as Elliot will be a great boost to our relationship building in the UK Wholesale market, further progressing our ability to provide clients with high conviction, sustainable investment solutions.”

With the hiring of Carter as head of UK Wholesale in September of last year, Mirabaud AM took a key step toward a stronger presence on the UK market. Carter formerly worked for Aviva Investors.

Michael Wang has joined the Global Emerging Market (GEM) Equities division at Mirabaud AM as a senior analyst and assistant portfolio manager. Meanwhile, Elena Bignami became an ESG analyst for the Responsible Investments team.
