RBC Global Asset Management has added 10 global equity specialists to its investment management team in London.
The team of specialists, led by Habib Subjally, join from First State Investments Limited, where they previously managed US$2.5 billion ($2.73 billion) in a variety of global equity strategies for institutions and private clients over the past eight years.
Subjally will assume the position of senior portfolio manager and head of global equities.
Neil Abbott, Luis Benoliel, Marcus Lun, Jeremy Richardson, Julie Thomas, Dag Wetterwald, Perry Winfield and Ben Yeoh are joining as senior portfolio managers, and Romain Scampini will join as portfolio manager.
“These expanded capabilities complement our existing breadth and depth of expertise across a wide range of global mandates, with a direct benefit to the individual and institutional investors we serve,” says John Montalbano, chief executive officer, RBC GAM. “The addition of this team brings considerable new strength to RBC Global Asset Management’s expertise in global equity management.”
