SEI has announced that it has expanded its institutional advice team with the appointment of Cyprian Njamma as an asset and liability analyst.

Cyprian will be based in London and will report to Charles Marandu, Director, European Institutional Advice. Cyprian and Charles form part of SEI’s 15-member institutional advice team, headed by Al Pierce. As an asset and liability analyst, Cyprian will be responsible for formulating and delivering strategic investment advice to occupational pension schemes in Europe, a key part of SEI’s Fiduciary Management offering.

Cyprian is a Fellow of the Institute of Actuaries and prior to joining SEI, he spent three years as an investment analyst at Mercer, where he was responsible for the delivery of investment advice to trustees of UK pension schemes. Prior to this, Cyprian spent the first two years of his career at Aon Consulting as an associate actuarial consultant.

Commenting on the appointment, Charles Marandu, Director of European Institutional Advice at SEI, said: “We are delighted to welcome Cyprian to the team. The blend of experience he gained over his early career will prove invaluable in this new role at SEI. As part of the advice team, Cyprian will play a vital role in the delivery of SEI’s Fiduciary Management offering, including working with the team on asset liability and financial modelling. This hire is a further reflection of the growing popularity of Fiduciary Management in the U.K. and evidence of the importance of strategic advice in meeting pension scheme funding objectives.”
