Russell Investments appoints Head of Investments

Pease, who most recently served as Global Chief Investment Strategist and has been a visible voice in global media for more than a decade, brings over 30 years of experience in asset allocation, portfolio strategy, and macroeconomic research. He will relocate from London to Sydney in July, following a multi-week transition and client engagement period in June.

“Andrew is a seasoned investor with a long history at Russell Investments and a deep understanding of global markets,” said Kate El-Hillow, President and Chief Investment Officer. “His appointment reflects our commitment to deepening regional expertise and better aligning our investment platform with client needs across the globe.”

“Our clients across Asia-Pacific increasingly expect access to globally integrated, locally relevant investment solutions,” said Jason Edgar, Head of Asia-Pacific (APAC). “Andrew’s global experience, longstanding client relationships, and deep connection to the region make him ideally positioned to help us deliver on that promise.”

“Andrew’s appointment meaningfully strengthens our investment leadership bench in APAC,” added Jon Eggins, Head of Portfolio Management. “His ability to connect macro insights to portfolio outcomes will directly benefit clients, especially as they navigate an increasingly complex investment landscape.”
