Janus Henderson Continues to Strengthen Portfolio Construction and Strategy Team

Janus Henderson Investors added two new hires to its Portfolio Construction and Strategy (PCS) team, led by Global Head of PCS Adam Hetts. Peter Harrington-Howes will assume the role of Senior Portfolio Strategist in the U.S., while Matt Bullock will serve as Head of Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) PCS and is based in the UK.

Peter has more than 16 years of experience in the financial services industry and most recently held the position of Senior Portfolio Advisor at Natixis. There he worked with intermediary and institutional clients across U.S., Latin American and U.S. offshore markets and was a voting member of the U.S. Investment Committee responsible for the Natixis model portfolios at Merrill Lynch. As a Senior Portfolio Strategist, Peter will partner primarily with U.S. clients, delivering actionable portfolio insights through custom asset allocation consultations and generating proprietary thought leadership.

Matt brings more than 20 years of financial services industry experience to the role, having joined from Wellington Management where he was Investment Director, Multi-Strategy Solutions and Thematics. Prior to that he held various leadership roles with a focus on EMEA markets, including senior positions at both BlackRock and the Pendal Group (formerly BT Investment Management). Matt will use his experience to extend the team’s institutional and intermediary client engagement models across EMEA and serve as the leader for the London-based team of portfolio strategists.

The Janus Henderson PCS team delivers customized portfolio analyses and insights for clients, providing them with data-driven diagnostic reports and proprietary thought-leadership content about asset allocation and macro market conditions.

The complementary service helps clients build more resilient portfolios through a better understanding of their unique performance drivers and the PCS team’s investment perspective. Peter and Matt’s appointments bring the headcount of the PCS team to 15 people covering U.S., U.S. offshore, Latin America and EMEA.

Suzanne Cain, Global Head of Distribution, said, “Our clients continue to show more interest in the differentiated consultations and award-winning proprietary analytics coming from our PCS team because it enables them to make more informed decisions about their portfolios. We’re pleased to further build the team and extend this partnership to more clients. In addition, given the current dynamics of the investment landscape, Peter and Matt will enhance the already high-caliber thought leadership coming out of this team so we can continue helping our investors make sense of what’s happening in the markets.”

Adam Hetts, Global Head of Portfolio Construction and Strategy, added, “Matt and Peter each bring a compelling set of expertise to our growing team of global portfolio strategists. Their additions are invaluable to our team’s strategy of providing solutions-based custom portfolio consultations and insights to Janus Henderson’s diverse client base across markets and regions.”
