Maaike van Tol has been named as the new Head of Risk for the Guardians of New Zealand Superannuation, which manages the $85 billion NZ Superannuation Fund.

Van Tol joined the Guardians' asset allocation team in April 2024, following nine years with ANZ Investments, where she finished as Head of Asset Allocation and Co-Head of Diversified Portfolio Management. She was responsible for the strategic and tactical asset allocation of the bank's KiwiSaver, private bank, retail and wholesale investment portfolios.

Previously, she spent 10 years in the Netherlands, where she worked for NN Investment Partners, IMC and ABN AMRO.

Guardians Chief Risk Officer Michael Mitchell said Van Tol would take responsibility for risk across the organisation, covering portfolio risk and model risk, compliance, operational due diligence and enterprise risk. 

"Maaike's analytical background and financial markets experience leave her very well equipped to guide the ongoing development of our risk management policies and processes," he said.

The appointment takes effect on September 29.
