Aberdeen's co-head of interest rates joins LGIM

Griffiths, who has been at Aberdeen since 2009 running institutional money, has been appointed as head of global rates at LGIM. He will take on the role in September reporting to Roger Bartley, head of fixed income. Griffiths previously worked for Goldman Sachs Asset Management co-leading the Government and Agency Alpha team. Bartley said Griffiths will aid the firm in diversifying its global rates strategy. "His substantial industry experience and background lends itself well to strengthening our overall fixed income proposition," he said.
