development, client, and consultant relations teams across North America,

).

As part of this strategic Client Group structure, Young will be responsible for 
enhanced coordination among global offices in order to support international 
growth and continue building innovative partnerships and delivering exceptional 
client service. Young will now be based at Acadian's Boston headquarters.

"We are thrilled to announce Kelly's appointment to CMO," said Ross Dowd, 
co-Chief Executive Officer at Acadian. "This role is not only a reflection of 
Acadian's growing international footprint, but also underpins our dedication to 
effectively and strategically expanding our global capabilities. Kelly's 
experience in managing international teams provides her a keen sense of the 
evolving and unique needs of global clients. I'm confident that under her 
leadership, Acadian's Global Client Group will meet and exceed the expectations 
of our growing client base."

To more adeptly address this expansion, the Global Client Group has also 
appointed dedicated regional heads for Europe and Asia. Andrew Hair, previously 
CEO of Acadian Australia, will assume the role of Head of Asia Pacific. Ian 
Shea, former director of Middle East Sales, will assume the role of Senior Vice 
President, Director, EMEA. 

Hair currently oversees Australia and New Zealand. As Head of Asia Pacific, he 
will also be responsible for Acadian's business across the region, as well as 
its offices in Tokyo and Singapore. Hair will continue in his role as CEO 
Australia, which he has held since 2012. Hair has more than 20 years of 
experience in financial markets, of which the last 12 have been with Acadian.

"I am excited to transition into the CMO role to help build upon the firm's 
commitment to superior global client service," said Young. "We have already 
built an extremely strong team globally, and with a new strategic structure in 
place that emphasizes cohesion while considering the distinct needs and nuances 
of clients in different global markets, we will not only be able to build on 
our success but further emphasize the value we place on partnership with our 
clients spanning the globe."

Young joined the London-based Acadian Client team in 2009 as a relationship 
manager providing marketing and client service to clients and prospects in the 
region. In 2012, Young became Managing Director of Acadian UK, and in 2017 was 
made Director, International Client Group, leading all non-U.S. offices. Kelly 
joined the Executive Committee in 2018.
