Andrea Ajila, previously an Advisor Services Associate at Aberdeen Asset Management, has recently been appointed Business Development Manager for Aberdeen’s International Wealth Management team focusing on the Miami and Latin American (ex Brazil) businesses. Andrea has been a key member of the business development team alongside the Head of the team, Menno De Vreeze and Business Development Manager, Damian Zamudio.
Previously, Andrea came from Punch & Associates, an investment management firm based in Minnesota, where she was part of the Wealth Strategies Group supporting private clients and later institutional investors. Andrea has also previously worked at Ameriprise Financial Services with a wealth advisory group in New York.
Bev Hendry, Co-Head of Americas said, “ We are delighted with Andrea’s appointment. Aberdeen has made a strong commitment to the U.S. Offshore space over the last several years and is looking to grow its business in both the U.S. offshore market and in Latin America. With recent key event sponsorships in Miami, Panama, and Uruguay so far this year, and with further plans for fund manager road shows and marketing initiatives in both the U.S. and Latin America, the Aberdeen team continues to make headway.”
Because of Aberdeen’s continued commitment to Latin America, it is timely to announce that on June 30th and July 1st 2015, Aberdeen’s Don Amstad, Director of Business Development – Asia, will be traveling to Uruguay and Chile for further updates on the firm’s Asian fixed income and multi-asset capabilities.
For further information on Mr. Amstad’s trip to the region and for information on Aberdeen’s investment capabilities, please contact Andrea Ajila at andrea.ajila@aberdeen-asset.com
