Sinclair will be responsible for leading M&G’s institutional distribution strategy in Australia, in particular deepening relationships with institutional asset owners and connecting clients with M&G’s public and private market capabilities, including official institutions, superannuation funds and insurers. He will be based in Sydney, reporting to Amy Cho, head of Asia Pacific.

Sinclair, who has more than 25 years of experience in institutional sales and distribution, was previously a co-founder and partner at Invest, where he was involved with capital raising and distribution strategy. Previously, he held senior leadership positions in institutional sales and client relationships across Australia and New Zealand at PGIM and Principal Global Investors.

“Australia is one of the most sophisticated and developed pension markets globally, with a strong institutional framework and long-term investment approach. It shares key structural characteristics with the UK, making it a natural market for M&G,” Neil Godfrey, global head of client group, M&G Investments, said. “This enables us to bring our investment capabilities across public and private markets, particularly in areas of credit, real assets, equities and real estate, where M&G has been engaged with Australian investors to help secure differentiated sources of return. Cameron’s appointment strengthens our presence and enhances our ability to deliver these capabilities through deeper, long-term partnerships with clients.”
