Jupiter appoints David Conway as sales representative for Asia

Jupiter Asset Management has announced the appointment of David Conway to the newly-created position of Sales Director, Asia Pacific.

David, who has over 16 years experience working in the financial services sector and has worked in Asia since 2001. He joins Jupiter in October from Royal Skandia, where he worked in a number of roles over several years in Asia, most recently as regional manager for Singapore and manager of key accounts across Asia. Before joining Royal Skandia in 2001, David worked at Scottish Life in the UK for several years.

In his new position at Jupiter, David will principally be responsible for developing Jupiter’s business with private banks, life companies and key wealth management institutions in Singapore  and Hong Kong, as well as building on the relationships already established in Asia, such as the strategic alliances formed with  Prudential Asia and Taiwan’s Taishin Bank in 2008.

Kevin Scott, Executive Director, International, at Jupiter Asset Management, said: “Jupiter has already enjoyed some success in Asia with global wealth managers, life companies and large regional institutions and we believe there is still plenty of potential for our business to develop in the region. As a result, we feel now is the right time to appoint a dedicated representative for Asia. David has considerable experience in the region and we are pleased he has chosen to join Jupiter.”

David Conway said: “Jupiter has a tremendous reputation for delivering performance over the medium to long term across a broad variety of products and I am looking forward to joining the Company in order to develop its operations in Singapore and the rest of Asia.”
