Reporting to the bank’s global chief investment officer, Xavier Baraton, Osiander will also join the company’s global fixed income management group.
This group, HSBC says, “provides oversight of the firm’s global fixed income organisation and fosters investment consistency by producing global scenarios and views on global risks and investment themes” and Osiander will be providing “key input on global rates and G10 currencies”.
However, HSBC says that the management of the global bond team’s mandates: global aggregate, global government, sterling gilts, sterling credit and US Dollar aggregate will be split among various members of the team.
Global government will be managed by Osiander and Laurent Lacroix; global aggregates by Osiander; the dollar aggregates mandate by Lacroix; UK Gilts by Kate Morrissey and credit by Moh Siddeeq and Aidan Solloway.
Osiander joined HSBC two years ago, the bank said, from FMS Wertmanagement, where his focus was on sovereign credit risk. And, between 1999 and 2010, he worked for a number of boutiques within the BNY Mellon Asset Management stable.
