Tracking the Activities of Global Asset Managers in Latin America

The offshore version of this high-conviction fund, managed by Daniel Paduano’s group within Neuberger Berman, has a 28-year track record in the US.

Corredores Davivienda, a Colombian brokerage firm, has hired ex-Itaú senior fixed-income fund selector Lucas Toro Duque as its head of international investments.

The firm is said to be particularly interested in the Brazilian and Peruvian marketplaces, where life-insurance penetration is relatively low.

A total of 45 products were added in the month from 14 different asset managers: State Street, iShares, AB, AZ Multi Asset, Barings, BMO, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, Ares, Coller, Crescent, Gelman, LGT and Vista.

In June, Brazilian mutual funds suffered BRL 25.9 billion (USD 7 billion) in capital outflows, their worst monthly result since October 2008.

“We have seen strong interest from international clients to have an Argentine bond product that can provide a compelling yield story," said Nicolas Giedzinski, head of LatAm intermediary and discretionary US Offshore.

A veteran in Latin American distribution circles, Victor Arakaki got his start in asset management at HSBC Brasil in 2007, where he remained until 2014, when he joined Deutsche Asset Management/DWS.

“Investors appear to be sleeping with one eye open," says Erik Davidson, CIO of Wells Fargo Private Bank. "They are optimistic, but they have clear concerns about what factors could impact markets and drive volatility.”

Nicolas Gazitua, who spent the last seven years in a sales role at Compass Group, will lead the alternatives manager's Santiago-based team, in coordination with NY co-heads Mark Benedetti and Vladimir Colas.

Seven mutual funds, 20 ETFs and three alternatives were added in June to the list of approved instruments eligible to receive allocations from Chilean Pension Managers (AFPs).
