The London CIV (“LCIV”) is pleased to announce that they have appointed Rob Treich as Head of Public Markets. The new role will focus on leading and developing London CIV’s investments across listed equities, fixed income, and multi-asset funds. Rob started in the role on Monday 6 September 2021.

Rob has over 20 years’ experience in the pensions, investment management and consulting industries.

Prior to joining CPT, Rob worked as a senior researcher at prominent investment consulting firms and as an equity portfolio manager.

On his appointment, Rob said, “This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the development of London CIV’s investment practice and the achievement of shareholder goals. I look forward to working with the team at London CIV and engaging with clients and investment managers.”

Mike O’Donnell, Chief Executive Officer of the London CIV, said “We are pleased to welcome Rob to the London CIV team. He brings with him a wealth of experience and his appointment is a key milestone in consolidating a strong investment team that will enable us to continue to effectively manage and develop our portfolio of Funds, in partnership with our 32 Client Funds”.

The new role supports ongoing enhancements to the London CIV investment team; Yiannis Vairamis joined in July 2021 as Senior Portfolio Manager, and Vanessa Shia joined in 2020 as Head of Private Markets. More recently, Pruthvi Odedra and Umer Nazir progressed into Portfolio Manager roles covering Private Markets and Fixed Income, respectively, to further enhance the responsibilities and capabilities of the team.
