PGGM, the asset manager of the €88bn ($138bn) Dutch pension fund for healthcare workers, has appointed an interim head of its alternative beta team to replace Jelle Beenen, who this month joined investment consultant Mercer's Amsterdam office.

Guillaume van der Linden, who was already a member of PGGM's alternative beta team, has been promoted to the interim position until a permanent head is appointed, a PGGM spokesman said.
