Along with Engström, HANetf has hired Riria Kivindyo as a junior sales executive for its UK team and Harrison Sands as financial planning and analysis manager.
“I’ve heard good things about the company culture at HANetf and I am glad to be a part of this great team. I am very excited about the product range, especially innovative products such as the CO2 commodity ETC and the impact made by investors through accessing EU carbon allowances. I hope to continue having good conversations with fund selectors,” Engström said.
HANetf currently holds about $4.7bn assets under management, after hitting $4bn in May this year, less than 10 years since the company began in 2017.
Hector McNeil, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of HANetf, said: “At HANetf, we are committed to offering distribution capabilities across Europe, and the expansion of our Nordic sales team demonstrates this. Patrik will help us expand our footprint in the Nordic regions, and his wealth of experience there will be extremely valuable.”
