Boutique asset manager Responsability has appointed Nadia Nikolova as its next chief executive officer.

She will take office at the start of September, following her departure from Allianz Global Investors, where she was head of direct lending.

Responsability’s current CEO Rochus Mommartz is retiring at the end of the year after over two decades at the company, which included its takeover by M&G in 2022.
