Generali Insurance AM names new head of investments
Generali Insurance Asset Management (GIAM) has appointed Antonio Pilato as head of investments.
Based in Milan and reporting to GIAM CEO Francesco Martorana, Pilato will be responsible for leading a team of more than 50 investment professionals in Paris, Trieste, Cologne and Milan.
He is taking over from Francesco Martorana, who held the head of investments responsibility ad interim, in addition to his CEO role.

There, he was responsible for the execution of all the transactions performed on financial markets (fixed income, equity, FX and derivatives) and the activities related to the subscription and redemption of funds units.
Prior to this, he held various management positions in trading desk, portfolio engineering and derivatives in the Generali Group, which he joined in 1998.

I am very proud we have found internally the talent and experience we were looking for, promoting a capable professional who has been instrumental in the development of our company so far. I wish Antonio further success in his new role."
