Blair Pickerell, the former chief executive officer of HSBC investments in Asia, is moving to Morgan Stanley in June. Pickerell will take up a new role at Morgan Stanley Investment Management (MSIM) as managing director and head of Asia business. He will report to Owen Thomas, president of MSIM in New York, and regionally he will report to Hans Schuettler, CEO of Morgan Stanley Asia.
Pickerell’s resignation on April 10 took HSBC by surprise, especially since Pickerell stated that the HSBC position was “the biggest role in asset management in Asia” when he took the job in 2003.
