ING Investment Management (INGIM) has hired another person to its Australian equities investment team, appointing Joel Fleming as a small companies equities analyst.
In July, the investment manager hired Sinclair Currie as a small cap portfolio manager following the defection of INGIM's entire small cap team to Credit Suisse Asset Management in May.
Fleming's previous job was with RCM Capital Management where he worked as a research analyst for three years.
He has also worked for broking firm Paterson Ord Minnett and the Health Department of Western Australia.
"With the recent additions of Sinclair and Joel, INGIM now has one of the best resourced Australian equities investment teams in the domestic marketplace, including significantly experienced individuals focused on the small companies market segment," INGIM director of Australian equities Paul Cuddy said.
