Eastspring Investments (Eastspring) has appointed Ghislain Périssé as head of insurance solutions.
In this newly created role, Périssé will lead the development and commercialisation of Eastspring’s insurance solutions capability.
Furthermore, he will focus on delivering tailored solutions that help insurers meet their capital, balance-sheet and investment objectives, including asset-liability management, capital efficiency, income generation and sustainable investing outcomes.
Salman Haider, chief distribution officer, head of ASEAN, Eastspring, and CEO of Eastspring Singapore, said: “Insurers across Asia are navigating increasingly complex investment, capital and balance-sheet challenges, and they need partners who understand both their investment objectives and the regulatory environment they operate in. Eastspring combines deep insurance heritage through our longstanding relationship with Prudential with more than three decades of investment expertise and a strong on-the-ground presence across Asia.
“Drawing on this heritage and expertise, our ambition is to be the trusted partner to insurers across Asia. Ghislain's experience across insurance asset management, investment strategy and client solutions will be instrumental as we continue to strengthen our insurance offering and deepen our engagement with insurers.”
Périssé has over two decades of experience across investments and insurance, and joins Eastspring from Fidelity International, where he was global head of insurance solutions for EMEA and APAC, responsible for developing the firm’s insurance asset management business and advising insurers on investment strategy, capital optimisation, product design and regulatory considerations.
