CIO Mark Lovett has left Allianz RCM

Mark Lovett, Allianz RCM’s chief information officer (CIO) of UK equities, has resigned from the firm to join another, undisclosed company.

As well as leading the asset manager's UK team, Lovett also ran the £48m UK Equity fund and £11m UK Unconstrained fund, according to our sister title Investment Week.

These responsibilities will be taken over by Jeremy Thomas, who already runs the £57m UK Growth fund. He will also take on responsibility for the UK portion of the global growth £209m Brunner Investment trust.

Meanwhile, RCM CIO for Europe Neil Dwane will take over the £57m Charter European trust.

Lovett joined RCM in 2002 as portfolio manager for UK & European equities from Deutsche Asset Management.
