Anita will work closely with research teams around the world, reinforcing Citi's leading ESG research offering currently spearheaded by Zoe Whitton in Citi Research in Asia-Pacific and by Jason Channell’s leadership in Citi Global Insights in London. ESG practices and themes continue to grow within the asset management industry and in corporate boardrooms and Citi Research & Global Insights remain at the forefront of this growth.

At M&G Anita led the integration of ESG into the internal and external investment process, working with M&G Equity and Fixed Income investment teams and engaging client asset owners and corporates on climate change and broader sustainability themes. Anita has a particularly deep interest in climate risk, sustainable supply chains, biodiversity loss and health risks.
