London, August 19 2021 — Neuberger Berman, a private, independent, employee-owned investment manager, is deepening its commitment to the Nordics by expanding its on-the-ground client coverage team.

Effective immediately, Senait Asgede has been appointed client relationship manager based in Stockholm and will cover the Swedish and Finnish institutional markets.

A seasoned professional with more than a decade of sales experience, Senait joins from Schroders, where she spent 6 years as a senior client director focused on the Nordic institutional market. Before that she held roles at Credit Suisse AM and Aviva Investors covering a range of products including alternatives and long only solutions.

Senait Asgede comments: “Joining a company with a differentiated solutions set spanning public and private markets, and a culture of putting clients first was very important to me. Leveraging Neuberger Berman’s global investment platform, I look forward sourcing innovative ideas to enhance clients’ investment planning, as well as helping my team identify strategic opportunities to engage with new groups across Sweden and Finland.”

Mark Oestergaard, head of Nordic client group at Neuberger Berman, says: “We welcome the addition of a senior partner to our team as we look to bolster our local presence in this increasingly sophisticated market. Senait will work closely with me to manage our existing relationships, expand our strategic engagement and grow our footprint.”
