NSW Treasury Corporation (TCorp), the financial and investment management provider for the NSW Government, has announced a suite of new leadership appointments, including Katharine Seymour who joined as general manager client relationships, effective 11 January 2017.

Seymour joined TCorp from BNP Paribas Securities Services, where she was head of market development. She brings a background in relationship/account management and market development having previously held senior positions with BlackRock and Schroders, in both Australia and the UK.

Joining Seymour in the new leadership team is Stewart Brentnall, as chief investment officer; Paul Verschuer as GM financial markets; Katy McDonald as GM HR and internal communications and Kevin Masling as chief risk officer.

Commenting on the appointments, TCorp CEO, David Deverall, said that as TCorp assumed significant scale as an asset manager, it was important it had the leadership and executive capabilities to match.

"These appointments bolster TCorp's organisational capabilities in key areas of our operations, both capital markets-facing and internally. Each of the appointments brings highly relevant experience gained at the coalface of capital markets and financial services, in Australia and in some cases internationally. We look forward to their contribution as we position TCorp for growth."
