BNP Paribas Securities Services (BNP PSS) has filled the co-head of operations vacancy created by Gordon Mackellar’s recent move to run operations at the Future Fund.
Darren Booth, who previously ran operations and IT at IOOF Investment Management, joined BNP PSS on April 16. He will work alongside Sue Jorgensen and report to Asia-Pacific managing director, Jean-Marc Pasquet.
The $34 billion Brighter Super is set to shift a significant proportion of equities assets in MySuper from passive to active management. Chief investment officer Mark Rider says the move is possible because of the scale created by mergers, and the fund will be looking to its newly appointed active managers to generate performance through the cycle by taking idiosyncratic risks.
