Regal FM names new global head of distribution
Alternative investment manager, Regal Funds Management, has announced the appointment of Rebecca Fesq as its new global head of distribution and marketing.
In her new role she would lead Regal’s global client strategy. Prior to joining Regal, Fesq worked at Pendal group for five years during which time she held a number of senior role and she also served as head of client experience and direct.
She had a proven track record across sales, marketing and client experience in the funds management and investment banking industry.
