Northern Trust Asset Management (NTAM) has appointed Milan Vidojevic as the investment firm’s director, quantitative solutions, international.
The recent appointment of Vidojevic is part of an expansion in the firm’s international quantitative solutions team, aimed at developing tailored investment strategies for clients.
Formerly a client portfolio manager and senior quantitative researcher at Robeco, Vidojevic holds a PhD in finance from Vrije University Amsterdam.
Bart van Vliet, the new quantitative solutions associate in Amsterdam, also joined from Robeco as a former client portfolio manager for quantitative equity strategies. Currently pursuing a PhD in factor investing at Erasmus University, Rotterdam, he has contributed thought-leadership papers on factor premia.
These appointments follow the recent hiring of Guido Baltussen Ph.D. as the head of quantitative strategies, international. Vidojevic and van Vliet report directly to Baltussen in their respective roles.
Michael Hunstad, deputy chief investment officer and CIO of global equities at NTAM, said: “With experience in factor investing and developing quantitative solutions for sophisticated institutional clients, Vidojevic will drive forward our global quantitative hub by supporting existing clients and developing strategic relationships with prospective partners.”
