Following the opening of its Spanish office in Madrid last October, Capital Group has announced the hiring of Alberto Belinchón Azpeitia as a Business Development associate.
Based in Madrid, Belinchón Azpeitia will be responsible for supporting Capital Group´s business development efforts in Iberia.
This hire follows that of other two Business Development Directors, Álvaro Fernández Arrieta and Mario González-Pérez, earlier in 2014.
Belinchón Azpeitia, who has a Bachelor of Business Administration and is EFPA (European Financial Planning Association) holder, started his professional career at Deloitte, in the marketing and institutional relations department. After that, he moved to Barclays where he held a number of different positions, latterly that of Premier Relationship Manager.
Capital Group now has eight offices in Europe, having opened in Luxembourg, Milan, Madrid, Zurich, Frankfurt and Amsterdam since 2012 – in line with its growth strategy for its European business.
Grant Leon, Senior Vice President at Capital Group, said: “Alberto’s appointment responds to our strategy of expanding our presence in the Spanish market while also ensuring we continue to deliver world-class client service. This is also aligned with our goal of continuing to establish new – and deepen our existing – relationships with intermediaries and our distribution partners in Spain and across Europe.”
