Starting late this month, Brodkin will be director of the Canadian business development and client service for T. Rowe.

“Through her many years of focus on institutional investors, Wendy has a uniquely attractive combination of in-depth market knowledge and great insights on pension and investment issues,” notes Flemming Madsen, vice-president of T. Rowe Price(Canada).

Prior to joining the firm, Brodkin was a practice leader with Watson Wyatt Worldwide as well as president of Goodman Institutional Investments.
