Chris Artis joined State Street Global Advisors in Melbourne as a vice president of sales and distribution on the firm’s institutional sales team.
The position is new, said SSgA spokeswoman Kate Fields.
Mr. Artis was head of cash and fixed income with Melbourne-based Telstra Super, Australia’s largest corporate superannuation fund with A$15.5 billion (US$12.7 billion) as of June 30, the close of its latest fiscal year.
Zoran Josic, a senior portfolio manager with Telstra, replaced Mr. Artis, taking on the title of head of fixed interest, cash and currency, said Telstra spokeswoman Dina Ross, in an e-mail.
