He takes on the role after almost 20 years at Aviva Investors, where he was most recently head of securities finance.
Meaden joined Aviva Investors in 2003 as a desk assistant before becoming a securities finance trader in 2005, where he handled securities lending, repo and funding transactions.

Among other benefits, this will extend the advantages of BNY Mellon cloud-based data platform, Data Vault, to support Aviva鈥檚 investment activities.
