New mandates for Aberdeen

Aberdeen Asset Management has picked up two significant institutional mandates for its global equities and Australian fixed interest businesses.
The fund manager announced that it had received a $150 million fixed income mandate from the Non-Government Schools Superannuation Fund and a “sizeable” global equities mandate from ING IM Multi-strategies Group.
Commenting on the mandates, Aberdeen’s Australian head, Brett Jollie, said he believed they represented an endorsement of the company’s Australian fixed income and global equity teams.
