Jupiter Asset Management, the listed fund management group with €47.5bn in assets under management* is pleased to announce the recent appointment of Matteo Dante Perruccio to the newly created role of Head of Global Key Clients and Strategic Partners, following the Company’s successful phase of international expansion into Continental Europe and Asia.

Matteo will report into Nick Ring, Jupiter’s Global Head of Distribution.
Matteo Dante Perruccio said: “With an investment culture focused on excellence and characterized by active unconstrained fund approach to investment, Jupiter is well positioned to be a quality partner to our key clients globally. While on the Board, I was a vocal advocate of Jupiter’s international expansion, and so I am pleased to now be playing a pivotal role in taking this ambition to the next level.”
Nick Ring, Global Head of Distribution, Jupiter said: “Taking responsibility for our biggest clients is a challenging task as their global reach is widespread and complex.
