António Simões, Group Chief Executive Officer of Legal & General: “In June we set out our ambition to deliver sustainable growth, sharper focus and enhanced returns as a simpler, better-connected L&G. Asset Management is the cornerstone of our growth strategy, and highly synergistic with our Institutional Retirement and Retail businesses.  In a competitive global search, Eric stood out for his growth orientation – bringing a track record of building businesses alongside broad investment expertise, deep international experience, and a strong client focus. I am delighted to be welcoming him to the Group.  Eric will join an excellent team that is showing great momentum, and I am confident that this will continue to accelerate under his leadership. I’d like to thank Michelle Scrimgeour for driving our asset management strategy and execution over the last five years, establishing the strong foundations and reputation we will now build on in our next phase of growth.”

Eric Adler: “L&G combines a strong heritage with an exciting vision for the future. I am looking forward to maximising the role of Asset Management in driving the Group’s ambitions, achieving profitable growth and mobilising the power of investment to drive economic opportunity and positive social impact.  Bringing together scale, global distribution, and expertise across public and private markets and asset classes, L&G is well placed to address the full breadth of client needs, including the increasing demand for responsible, blended investment solutions. The potential is significant, and I can’t wait to get started with António and the team.”
