Leadership change for AMP Capital
For immediate release: Friday 3 April 2009< Leadership change for AMP
Capital Graham Law has been appointed Managing
Director of AMP Capital Investors New Zealand Limited. Mr
Law joined AMP Capital Investors in 2007 and brings to the
Managing Director’s role a strong risk business
management, compliance, governance and finance focus. Prior
to joining AMP Capital Mr Law was an Executive Director at
Ernst & Young, specialising in Assurance services and
Transaction Advisory Support services for a diverse
portfolio of organisations, including AMP Capital
Investors. Mr Law’s appointment completes the
reorganisation of AMP Capital’s New Zealand business along
asset class lines where the heads of each asset class –
private equity, fixed interest, property, listed
equities and so on – report to Australia and are members
of international teams of experts of the same
discipline. Michael Clarke, Director International
Business for AMP Capital Investors based in Australia said
it is an indication of the breadth and depth of experience
in the New Zealand leadership team that we have been able
to promote someone from within. Long term Managing
Director Murray Gribben, is stepping down from the role to
pursue his own investment interests but has agreed to stay
on to assist managing the Private Equity interests
through the execution of transactions that are due to be
completed this year. “It is a credit to Murray
Gribben that Graham Law will be in a position to build on
the success the New
Zealand business has achieved over
recent years,” said Mr Clarke. AMP Capital is New
Zealand’s leading fund manager and an active participant
in the development of New Zealand and its economy through
investment in property, private equity, infrastructure, and
asset management on behalf of New Zealanders. The company
was winner of the recently awarded Morningstar Fund
Manager of the Year for 2008. - ENDS
