In this role, Matthias will be responsible for developing and managing outcome-oriented multi-asset investment solutions as part of WFAM's Multi-Asset Solutions team.

Reporting to Dan Morris, who was recently appointed to head of Multi-Asset Solutions, Matthias brings 20 years of investment industry experience and joins a team of 25 multi-asset investment professionals globally. He is based in London.
