DNB Asset Management today announced the appointment of Lorenzo González Menéndez as Head of Southern Europe, expanding his responsibilities beyond his current role as Head of Iberia.
In his new position, González Menéndez will oversee business development and client engagement across Southern Europe, as the firm aims to further strengthen and expand its presence in the region. The appointment reflects DNB Asset Management’s continued commitment to international clients, reinforcing distribution in markets where the firm is still building brand awareness and introducing its investment capabilities.
Lorenzo González Menéndez brings more than 25 years of experience in the Spanish financial sector, having held positions at leading institutions including Banco Sabadell, Banco Atlántico, Bankia, Nordea, and DNB, among others. He joined DNB Asset Management in December 2024 as Head of Iberia, where he has played a key role in establishing the firm’s local market development, strengthening client relationships, and increasing brand visibility.
“This appointment marks an important step in the expansion of DNB Asset Management International,” said Amra Koluder, Managing Director and Head of International Clients and Distribution. “With Lorenzo’s leadership, we aim to expand our presence in markets across Southern Europe where we are still in the early stages of presenting our investment solutions.”
Commenting on his new role, Lorenzo González Menéndez said:
I am proud to take on this expanded responsibility at such an important time for DNB Asset Management’s international growth. Building on the progress made since opening our Madrid office, our focus will be on deepening partnerships with clients and distributors across Southern Europe and bringing DNB Asset Management’s investment capabilities to a broader investor base.
DNB Asset Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of DNB Group, is part of DNB ASA, Norway’s largest financial services provider. The firm continues to develop its international platform through dedicated teams serving institutional and wholesale clients across Europe.
