Sourna Daneshvar has been hired to join Aon Securities as managing director. Based in Chicago, Daneshvar will focus primarily on expanding Aon Securities’ capabilities in raising capital and product innovation. In his new role, Daneshvar will report to Paul Schultz, CEO of Aon Securities. Daneshvar joins Aon from global banking organisation Citibank, where he was a director, specialising in securitisation and managing alternative sales and asset origination across both public and private markets for alternative institutional investors and insurance clients.
