In 2012, she joined the investment department with a focus on developing front office oversight and relationship management with key counterparties, and five years later, was in charge of the MiFiD II structure to evaluate Aegon’s investment research consumption.

She has also co-chaired the asset manager’s global investment management risk control committee. Before arriving at Aegon, Scott held roles at Financial Times Information and HSBC Global Fund Services.

Scott will report into Adrian Hull, global head of core fixed income, and will be based in the company’s Edinburgh office.

He added, “Her appointment as global climate solutions lead allows us to accelerate our expertise in climate transition investing as we continue to adapt for the future.”
