London-based investment house Aspect Capital has appointed Anna Hull as its chief risk officer and added her to the firm’s board.
In her role, Hull (pictured) will continue to have responsibility for the oversight of investment and operational risk across the business but will now play a larger role in strategic planning.
Aspect, which has $6 billion (€5.6 billion) under management, has expanded the size of its board from seven to eight members to accommodate Hull’s addition to the board.
Anthony Todd, CEO of Aspect, said: “Anna has nearly 20 years’ experience in the quantitative investment industry. Her track record, expertise and collaborative style will be invaluable as we continue to build our business.”
Anna was previously Aspect’s risk director, responsible for the oversight of market, model and operational risks. Before that she was Aspect’s product management director.
Before joining Aspect in 2008, Anna was a senior portfolio manager at Old Mutual Asset Managers from August 2004 to May 2008.
