Schroders Plants Its Flag

Schroder Investment Management’s top brass in London have determined that continental Europe and North Asia offer the best growth prospects for the next five to 10 years, and it is the job of Simon Rigby (pictured), the managing director for Asia, to ensure the fund management giant realizes it in this part of the world. To that end he has been very busy expanding the firm’s retail and institutional presence in South Korea, Mainland China and Taiwan through a mixed strategy of partnerships and acquisitions.
