Franklin Templeton Boosts Investment Team with Key Hires from Aviva
Franklin Templeton is bolstering its investment team with two key hires from Aviva Investors. Josh Lohmeier and Michael Cho are set to join the firm, with Lohmeier also welcoming Tom Meyers to the team.
The trio will report to chief investment officer Sonal Desai, bringing their expertise to Franklin Templeton's investment-grade credit team. The team, acquired from Aviva Investors, is expected to make the move by the end of 2021. Despite initial reports, there is no public confirmation of Tom Meyers' involvement in the acquisition or a specific year for the event.
Franklin Templeton's expansion continues with the addition of Lohmeier, Cho, and Meyers. The new team members will strengthen the investment-grade credit team under Desai's leadership, further enhancing Franklin Templeton's capabilities.
