Peter Siapikoudis will join Frontier as senior consultant from March 2016 and will lead the firm’s infrastructure research.

Siapikoudis is well known in institutional investment circles, and particularly within the infrastructure space, as a former senior executive at Hastings Funds Management, where he was chief executive and portfolio manager of The Infrastructure Fund (TIF) and Hastings Hancock International Timberland Fund and more recently headed up Hastings’ mandates business platform.

Prior to joining Hastings in 2008, he had an eight-year stint managing UniSuper’s infrastructure investment portfolio and five years with William M Mercer across its actuarial consulting and asset consulting practice groups.

According to Damian Moloney, chief executive of Frontier, Siapikoudis multidimensional background, combined with his senior level and hands-on management experience at Hastings, make him an excellent addition to the Frontier senior team.
