Natixis Global Asset Management (NGAM) has appointed Marie Teo as director of institutional sales, Southeast Asia.
Based in Singapore, Teo will help drive overall development of NGAM’s business in the region across institutional channels.
Teo joins NGAM from Amundi where she served as director and head of institutions for Southeast Asia. Prior to that, Teo served as director, institutional marketing for APS Komaba Asset Management in Singapore.
Teo’s appointment is part of a continued expansion of NGAM’s capabilities in the region and closely follows the recent addition of Madeline Ho, former regional head of Southeast Asia for Fidelity Worldwide Investment, as NGAM’s head of wholesale distribution for Asia Pacific and managing director of NGAM Singapore. Reporting to Ho, Teo joins with extensive knowledge of and experience in the institutional markets of Southeast Asia, a region of key significance to NGAM’s overall expansion in Asia.
“Marie’s expertise and experience will be critical in our efforts to help institutional investors across Asia manage risk more effectively and construct portfolios that meet the modern market challenges of rising volatility and low yields,” says Hervé Guinamant, president and chief executive of Natixis Global Asset Management – international distribution.
