Schroders is pleased to announce that today Mr. Doyle will join the firm's Sydney offices as an investment director for global equities, where he will represent Schroders' global equity capabilities across Australia and New Zealand. His focus will include the recently launched Global Equity Alpha strategy, a highly concentrated fundamental portfolio, as well as the firm's global Quantitative Equity Products (QEP) strategies which already enjoy over A$14bn of support from Australian clients.
The Global Equity Alpha strategy, which is now being introduced to the Australian market, offers investors concentrated exposure to global equities and has demonstrated strong performance with more than a decade of consistent outperformance against the MSCI ACWI index. Additionally, QEP's flagship Core strategy, with its highly diversified approach, marks a significant milestone this month, celebrating its 25th anniversary with a remarkable track record of outperforming its benchmark in 20 out of 25 years.
Mr Doyle will report to Ray Macken, Head of Client Group, Australia and New Zealand.
Mr Doyle has more than 22 years’ experience in asset management, with extensive client facing experience across institutional and intermediary channels, as well as with brokers and the direct-to-consumer market, having launched and championed active ETFs for a number of years.
Mr Doyle joins Schroders from Pinnacle boutique Firetrail Investments, where he was most recently their Head of Investment Strategy.
Prior to Firetrail, Mr Doyle worked at Fidelity and Macquarie in Australia, as well as M&G (in England), where he was responsible for establishing the investment specialist role and led a team of specialists that covered fixed income equities, multi-asset and property, and Pioneer Investments (in Ireland).
Simon Doyle, CEO of Schroders Australia, says that Mr Doyle’s extensive experience will be an asset to the wider Schroders team as it enhances its global equity capabilities in Australia.
“Anthony will have a strong client facing role and will be the bridge between our clients and our global equities portfolio managers locally and globally.”
“This will enhance our ability to deliver to the overall investment needs of our clients and provide solutions through our select, high quality global equity investment capabilities.”
Anthony holds an MBA from the University of London and a Master of Economic Studies from the University of New England.
