Stenham, the award-winning alternative investment wealth management group, appointed John Long as Institutional Business Development manager.
Stenham says it has been growing its institutional client base in the UK working with family offices, private asset managers and advisers as well as institutions both on a direct basis and via consultants.
John Long joins the Institutional Business Development team to further develop the company’s long-term growth strategy in these key areas in the UK. Prior to joining Stenham, John worked for Investec Asset Management for six years where he established and developed relationships with institutions including life assurance companies and private wealth managers. More recently he was in charge of Investec’s relationships with fund of hedge fund managers in the UK and Europe.
“There is a growing awareness in the UK of the role of alternative investments in client portfolios as an important tool to help improve overall diversification and to reduce volatility,” says Harry Wulfsohn, head of Institutional Business Development. “I am delighted to welcome John to the team as an important part of our growth strategy for the UK.”
“Stenham now has strategic focus in the UK, Europe, Latin America and Southern Africa and in all these markets we are committed to our philosophy of wealth preservation and focusing as much on managing risk as delivering returns,” Wulfsohn adds.
