RCM (UK) Ltd, a specialist global equity company of Allianz Global Investors, has announced today that it has expanded its Sustainability Research Team with the appointment of James Britland to the position of analyst.
Britland joins from Goldman Sachs where he worked for two years in the Pan European Mid-Cap team where he focused on capital goods companies. Based in London, he will primarily support fund manager Bozena Jankowska, running the Allianz RCM Global EcoTrends Fund, which launched in the UK earlier this year.

As this part of the business develops, it is crucial that the resources and expertise are in place to continue to deliver returns for investors.”
