Northern Trust has appointed Matt Severs to fulfill a newly created position as the Head of Consultant Relations for its Corporate & Institutional Services business in North America. He will assume responsibility for consultant relationships, working alongside relationship management, sales, product development and operations to support all asset servicing touch points between Northern Trust and the consultant community.
“Matt’s new role is part of an enterprise-wide effort to strengthen consultant relations, recognizing the strategic influence that this group carries within the asset servicing market,” says Robert Frazer, head of global consultant relations for Northern Trust’s Corporate & Institutional Services business. “We are delighted that someone with Matt’s talent will assume responsibility for managing these communications and act as an advocate for Northern Trust.”
Severs brings with him a wealth of product and industry knowledge from his tenure within Northern Trust’s fund administration business, where he helped build Northern Trust’s market leadership in the cross-border pooling space. Since 1998, he has supported a rapidly expanding client base centered in Europe and North America and has overseen product development for client reporting.
