SG Hiscock to manage retail distribution



Retail distribution for all SG Hiscock & Company (SGH) and LaSalle funds previously managed by Equity Trustees will transition to SGH, Equity Trustees announced.
Equity Trustees said it would continue to act as responsible entity and unit registry for all SGH funds.
Some members of the Equity Trustees Corporate Trustee Services business unit distribution team, led by Eliza Weaving, will move across to SGH.
Equity Trustees Corporate Trustee Services executive general manager, Harvey Kalman, said the reorientation would allow them to better serve clients, meet strategic priorities, and take advantage of opportunities in its core areas of strength.
"Our colleagues at SGH are doing the same and the complementary nature of our services and our business relationship made the option of more closely coupling distribution with investment management an obvious choice," Kalman said.
