Towers Watson boosts client consulting team
Towers Watson has added two investment analysts to its Australian investment team.
James Morris and Viduranga Weerasuria will both provide support to the client consulting teams. They join the eight other recruits to the Australian investment team last year.
Towers Watson Australia director of investment services Graeme Miller said the expansion of the team demonstrated Towers Watson's "ongoing commitment" to provide its clients with "a significant competitive investment edge".
"James and Viduranga will be supporting our client consulting team by carrying out quantitative analysis, assisting with research, and assisting with the preparation of client reports," Miller said.
Towers Watson recently replaced Mercer as the asset consultant for AMP Capital's range of multi-manager funds.
The Towers Watson Investment business has more than 700 associates globally, as well as assets under advice of over US$2 trillion.
