J.P. Morgan Asset Management expands its exchange-traded fund team in Asia with a new specialist formerly from South Korean asset manager Mirae.
Nick Kim joins the firm as an ETF specialist with a focus on Asia ETFs as well as strengthening regional client relationships and support in product development. In his Hong Kong-based role, Kim reports to Sean Cunningham, head of Asia ETFs at the firm.
Previously, Kim was a global ETF sales VP at Mirae Asset Global Investment.
«With over 10 years industry experience and ETF sales expertise, Nick will enhance our team and accelerate our momentum in the Asia Pacific region, ensuring we can serve evolving client needs as they become more comfortable with trading ETFs and holding ETFs in their portfolio,» said Cunningham.
