Brown Advisory has appointed Anna Rudgard as a fixed income ESG Analyst.

Rudgard joins from Aon, where she was lead researcher for fixed income ESG strategies. She will be responsible for expanding the firm’s sustainable investment, integrating ESG research and the examination of the intended use of bonds’ proceeds with fundamental fixed income research.

Ryan Myerberg, Partner and Portfolio Manager at Brown Advisory, said: “Brown Advisory has a strong reputation for sustainable investing and this is an exciting time for our expanding Global Sustainable Fixed Income team. In a macroeconomic environment that is challenging investors with inflationary headwinds, shifting monetary policy and rich valuations for risk assets, our sustainable investing principles and process are well-aligned with long-term performance durability, offering a compelling fixed income option for clients seeking quality, flexibility and global diversification in their portfolios.”
