Select adds advisory panel to investment committee
Select Asset Management has added an investment advisory panel (IAP) to its investment committee, which it says will assist in validating investment ideas or provide views contrary to its own.
The members of the IAP will contribute across a diverse range of investment ideas including macro economic outlook, alternative investments and property while it will also include hedge funds, traditional assets and fixed interest.
Members of the IAP team are Michael Adam, co-founder of trading investment manager Aspect Capital and financial services technology business Inventure, Sam Armstrong, who was Macquarie Funds Management head of alternative investments and founding partner of Quay Partners and David Bell who is the founder and director of St Davids Rd Advisory and previously managed Colonial First State Global Asset Management’s Fund of Hedge Fund business.
Also joining the committee is AXA Australia investment manager listed equities and fixed interest portfolios Dr Bartholomew Dowling and former AMP Capital Investors director of Asian investments and head of property Rob Morrison.
