Prior to joining IFM, White spent eight years at Fidelity as a senior analyst and held roles at Schroders, Global Value Investors and Investors Mutual.

Longwave Capital Partners, founding partner and chief investment officer, David Wanis, welcomed White’s appointment.

“I’m very proud of the outcomes Longwave has been able to achieve for clients since we launched the Longwave Small Companies Fund in 2019. We are now very pleased to attract an additional investment professional of Melinda’s calibre, which will further enhance our capabilities and help underpin our continued success,” Wanis said.

“Attracting the highest-calibre investment professionals is critically important to our distinctive multidisciplinary investment process.”

White said: “I have the greatest respect for the experienced Longwave team, their investment processes and what they’ve achieved in a short period of time. My own personal investment philosophies are closely aligned to those of the firm and I am very excited to be joining such a dynamic team”.
