Mandatum announced it has appointed Janne Sarvikivi (MSc. Econ.) as Head of Mandatum's Institutional and Wealth Management segment. The position has been vacant since October when the previous head left their post. We originally expected a replacement appointment from within Mandatum, but after almost half a year of waiting, it was unsurprising that the new head was eventually found outside the company.

Sarvikivi comes to Mandatum from Nordea, where he has worked for over 15 years as Head of Equities Finland and, in recent years, as Managing Director of Equities Finland. We are neutral about the appointment at this point, as Sarvikivi seems to know the domestic customer base well based on his resume, even though he does not have actual asset management experience.
