FTSE 100 asset manager Abrdn has ditched its co-chief executive structure in a raft of senior management changes across its investments business.

The Edinburgh-headquartered group told staff on 11 May that Chris Demetriou, who is CEO of its investments business across the UK, Emea and Americas, will step down from his role.
