Australian Retirement Trust appoints first head of private credit and seeks UK head

A high-level investments team restructure has seen the fund create several new senior portfolio manager roles within its mid-risk investments function.

Australian Retirement Trust has appointed a new head of private credit and is recruiting for its first head of UK for mid-risk assets following a reorganisation of its investment team, Private Debt Investor has learned.

The superannuation fund, which is the second-largest in Australia with A$328.6 billion ($212 billion; €184 billion) in assets under management according to PDI data, began restructuring its investment team in April this year by tweaking the titles and responsibilities of its investments leadership team.
