Fiera Capital has been selected by Russell Investments Canada Ltd. and U.K.-based Russell Investments Company II PLC to respectively sub-advise the recently launched Russell Focused Global Equity Pool and the existing Russell Global Defensive Equity Fund.
The company is the first Quebec-based asset manager on a Canadian Russell platform as well as the first Canadian firm tapped to manage one of Russell’s global equity investment strategies on its Canadian platform.
“We are thrilled to associate with Russell, a partner with such prominence and worldwide recognition,” says Jean-Guy Desjardins, Fiera’s chairman and CEO. “We are also pleased that this strategic alliance with Russell will enhance Fiera’s distribution capabilities and market reach by providing access to a global investment platform.”
