The chief executive of Legal & General’s asset management business has unveiled a plan to unlock “untapped potential” at the UK fund group, six months after taking on the top job.

Eric Adler, who joined L&G Asset Management in December from US-headquartered PGIM, is set to present an asset management “deep dive” to investors on 17 June, which includes a focus on growing its international footprint and bolstering its investment capabilities in key areas like private markets.
