The overlay team, Berenberg’s strategic growth area, is within the investment & risk management solutions unit.

Berenberg eyes a 50% asset growth in the operation to nearly €11bn.

At present, the firm is working to further develop the investment process, with focus on big data integration.

Berenberg head of investments & risk management solutions and head of overlay management Matthias Grimm said: “This will give our international business another big boost.

“These personnel changes also clearly indicate our focus on maintaining our position as one of the leading names in our field and shows that our ambition attracts experts to join us.”

Earlier this year, Berenberg collaborated with digital private assets investment platform Moonfare to offer its clients access to private equity funds.
