In his new role, Bridges will be responsible for macro-economic and strategic investment research for Tyndall’s Australian fixed income funds and insurance asset management solutions.

Alexander and Bridges will report to the firm’s global CIO Yu-Ming Wang for investments and Mike Davis, who is managing director, for local management issues respectively.
