Late in November, AMP Capital, which had A$145 billion ($124.7 billion) of assets under management at end-September, unveiled changes to its business lines, creating the new role of global head for infrastructure equity to target investments in the northern hemisphere. Also in November, the firm said one of its longest-serving members of its leadership team, director and chief investment officer, property, Andrew Bird, was set to retire in 2015. He has had a 37-year career in the property industry in the UK and Asia-Pacific fields. (For more on these stories, see here.)
