Tyndall adds to investment team

Tyndall has expanded its investment team with the announcement of four new appointments.

Robert Woodford takes on the combined role of fixed income investment specialist and institutional account manager. He will manage Tyndall's relationship with key institutional clients on the fixed income side of the business, and will help develop and implement fixed income strategies. Woodward was co-founder and executive director of Columbus Capital Ltd before moving to Tyndall.

Sebastien Mullins is Tyndall's new portfolio manager for the implemented management team. He will be in charge of the company's global equities strategy and its diversified funds range. Mullins previously worked for Challenger in a performance, risk analytics and valuation role.

Janelle McKimm and Jessica Burnstone have been appointed to investment writing roles. The newly created positions are part of the marketing capability but sit within the investment teams. McKimm, who previously worked at Tyndall in a similar role, will become an investment writer for the Australian equities team. Burnstone, who comes from Standard & Poor's Fund Services, will work within the fixed income team.

Tyndall managing director Craig Hobart said the new appointments would establish the company as an independent fund manager in Australia (as was the desire of its parent company, Nikko Asset Management).

"We are well positioned to achieve our expansion goals whilst continuing to maintain our highly rated investment approaches and portfolio management style," Hobart said.

"We have already benefited from additional investment and business insights from our relationship with Nikko AM, and their support is proving invaluable," he added.
