The distribution agreement serves to rebuild AllianzGI's presence in the US Offshore and Latin American wealth channels.

Vince León will work closely with financial advisors, private banks, wirehouses and independent broker dealers active in the US offshore market, helping clients access M&G's range of public and private market investment solutions.

The transaction would bring a leading private markets platform under Mercer’s umbrella at a time when the firm is playing a key role in the implementation of Chile’s pension reform.

BTG Pactual’s entry introduces the first credible competitive challenge to Singular Asset Management, which has effectively dominated the market for several years.

Aiming to expand their presence among institutional clients, both firms are strengthening their distribution capabilities with the addition of seasoned Chilean executives.

“We see significant growth potential across Latin America, with Mexico, Chile, and Colombia standing out as markets where client demand and engagement are particularly strong,” said William Lopez, Head of Europe and Latin America at Jupiter Asset Management.

The buyers include investors such as General Atlantic, Afore SURA, BTG Pactual, Chubb and funds managed by Blackstone, Liberty Strategic Capital, and Qatar Investment Authority (QIA).

The acquisition will create a combined group with USD 2.5 trillion of assets under management.

Grupo Aval has completed a major restructuring of its asset management operations under the leadership of Alejandro Gómez, former CEO of AFP Porvenir. The group aims to preserve its industry leadership, leveraging its current approximately 25% market share.
