Northern Trust expands sustainable investing team in EMEA

Thursday, February 21, 2019

Laxman Pai, Opalesque Asia:

The global investment firm Northern Trust Asset Management has hired Valeria Dinershteyn as a sustainable investing strategist based in Amsterdam.

The appointment reaffirms the firm's ongoing commitment to providing investors with sustainable investing solutions that seek to deliver competitive risk-adjusted returns.

In this newly-created client-facing role, Dinershteyn will help educate investors on innovations in the ever-evolving landscape of sustainable investing and ESG strategies.

She joins Northern Trust Asset Management from Kempen Capital Management, where she covered environmental issues and consulted with clients as they developed and implemented their responsible investment policies.

"Investor demand for sustainable investment strategies remains strong, particularly among pension schemes across Europe, Australia and North America," said Marie Dzanis, head of Northern Trust Asset Management - Europe, Middle East, Africa (EMEA).

"As these markets continue to evolve and mature, it is important that we have a team of experts focused on understanding and anticipating investors' needs. Valeria will be a key part of this effort," Marie added.

Entrusted with $885bn of investor assets, Northern Trust Asset Management offers a range of investment solutions to clients from its network of offices across the globe, including from London, Amsterdam and Stockholm in the EMEA region.
