VanEck announces new hires amid growth ambitions

InvestorDaily

VanEck has added four new hires to its Australian business in a bid to increase its market share among financial advisers and institutional investors. Connor Goggins has joined the firm’s business development and client solutions team as its newest business development associate. Goggins was most recently a buy side account manager at Bloomberg, and before this, held a series of analytical roles across financial product and fixed income with the firm.

VanEck clarified that, in his new capacity, he will support the business’ northern region client base. Arian Neiron, VanEck’s APAC chief executive and managing director said: “Demand is ramping up as advisers get better acquainted with the opportunities our investment strategies bring. “However, there’s still a lot of room to grow. ETFs currently make up only a fraction of the total $4.75 trillion of funds under management in Australia. Our market-leading ETF strategies have the potential to capture a much bigger slice of the pie, and our new hires will help bolster our efforts to achieve that growth,” Neiron added.
