Aristotle Capital Management has wrapped up the purchase of Pacific Asset Management from Pacific Life Insurance Company.

Pacific Asset Management, which currently manages more than $20bn in assets, will now operate under the brand name Aristotle Pacific Capital.

The acquired firm will retain its investment team and continue to be led by its CEO Dominic Nolan, to ensure continuity.

Aristotle also reorganised several Pacific Funds, Pacific Life’s publicly traded mutual fund complex, into new Aristotle Funds.

The advisor and administrator for the new Aristotle Funds will be Aristotle Investment Services, a recently established Aristotle affiliate.

The acquisition and reorganisation efforts together added more than 50 professionals and approximately $22bn in new assets to the Aristotle organisation.
