Managed accounts provider, InvestSense, has seen its funds under management (FUM) grow over 40 per cent, and announced the appointment of Paul Carrington to help manage the growth of the firm.

In response to the increased growth, Carrington, who has over 30 years’ experience in the financial advice sector, to the newly-created role of director, head of adviser solutions.
“Paul’s first-hand experience and depth of knowledge in financial advice will be invaluable for our clients, as well as for driving further growth in our bespoke managed accounts offering,” said Andronaco.
