The sales team at Catella’s fund management unit has also been boosted with the internal recruitment of Carl Berg from Catella Bank. 

“We are pleased and proud to be able to announce Josef Mehkri as a new senior client manager at Catella’s fund management unit,” says Erik Kjellgren, head of the Swedish fund operations. “With his extensive background from major Swedish and international banks, Josef will be an excellent complement to the existing team. In addition, we have recruited Carl Berg, who previously worked with portfolio management and advisory services at Catella Bank, to the sales team. This means we can start 2017 with a really strong team in our fund management operations.”
