Ascalon Capital Managers has appointed Robert Lance as head of Australia.
While managing local operations, his primary role will be to lead relationships with Ascalon’s boutique partners in Australia.
Lance is the co-founder and former chief executive of Hong Kong-based DragonBack Capital. He has more than 25 years experience in Asia Pacific markets building and leading investment banking and asset management teams.
