Nedgroup Investments has appointed Alan Wateridge to its client team to expand its UK distribution footprint.
Wateridge joined as a client solutions lead from Gallagher, where he most recently served as client director for wealth. Prior to that, he was at HSBC Asset Management as director of business development.
The hire follows a series of senior appointments as Nedgroup Investments looks to deepen relationships with UK clients and strengthen its market presence. In September, the firm added Denis Skeate to its client team to bolster its UK sales capability.
