Riddell joined Allianz GI from M&G, where he worked on a range of fixed income funds and actively contributed towards the Bond Vigilantes blog and was particularly well-known for his bearish view of China.

Allianz Global Investors global head of fixed income Franck Dixmier said: "Creating a dedicated footprint in the UK, one of the world’s most important and outward-looking financial markets, will perfectly complement our existing eurozone expertise, giving our clients access to a one-stop shop for European fixed income."

"Mike joins us at an exciting time for our fixed income business, and I am sure that his deep experience of both UK and global fixed income markets will play a central role in building this new pillar in our international fixed income capability."
