As the funds continue to adapt to changing market conditions, we continue to see ongoing support from investors in the wholesale channel in the UK. As a result, we are expanding the team and are delighted to welcome John into this new role.
John’s work ethic, market knowledge, and attention to detail, coupled with his experience in an equity boutique environment, mean that he will be an excellent cultural fit at GQG. With his help, we hope to make continued progress with key fund selectors and increase our client coverage throughout the UK market,” Mr. Lee says.
