On the go: The Arjo UK Pension Scheme has hired Kempen Capital Management UK as its fiduciary manager.
Kempen was selected by the medical technology company scheme after a six-month tender process that ran from November 2020 to April 2021.
The manager will collaborate with the scheme trustees to implement a collaborative investment strategy and achieve the scheme and sponsor full funding objectives, Kempen stated.
Bob Lock, chair of trustees for the Arjo UK Pension Scheme, noted that Kempen’s investment strategy fits with its flight plan and is focused on investing in more longer-term funds.
He added: “The Kempen team have been very open and proactive throughout the tender process, which has continued during the transition of our assets.
“Kempen was selected after a number of meetings over a six-month process in which high scores were achieved on all selection criteria. The good professional relationship with the Kempen team was also important in the process.”
