Schroders, a global leader in active management, is enhancing its focus on meeting the increasingly complex needs of major global clients with the appointment of a Head of Cross Border, Financial Institutions.
Guillaume Lendormy will oversee and drive the global client strategy for large institutions which operate across multiple markets, navigating jurisdictional and regulatory complexity.
In this newly-created role, Guillaume will focus on strengthening strategic relationships, ensuring consistent engagement with the key decision-makers across relevant jurisdictions. He will dovetail with Schroders’ investment teams to ensure market insights and product capabilities are aligned with clients’ evolving needs and are responsive to emerging investment opportunities across regions.
Guillaume joins from PGIM – Global Wealth, where he was responsible for Global Financial Institutions across EMEA and Asia. He previously held senior global roles at Robeco, where he worked for more than a decade.
Matt Oomen, Global Head of Client Group, Schroders, said:
“Cross-border financial institutions are increasingly sophisticated and in need of strategic advice and bespoke solutions as they navigate growing challenges spanning the likes of macro-economic volatility and evolving regulation. Guillaume’s more than 20 years’ experience working with large, complex international institutions will strengthen our ability to serve this hugely important client demographic.
“His appointment reinforces our unwavering focus on delivering market-leading investment expertise to our international clients.”
Guillaume will join the firm on 4 May, reporting directly to Matt Oomen. His appointment further demonstrates Schroders’ commitment to appointing world-class expertise, following shortly after the recruitment of Patrick Schwyzer as Head of Europe.
