SVM Asset Management, an Edinburgh investment boutique, has appointed Kevin McFarlane as Sales Manager to help develop the company’s growth strategy.
McFarlane has 20 years’ experience in the investment industry, having previously worked as Sales Manager for Miton (now Premier Miton), Schroders and Standard Life. He will be working alongside Head of Sales & Marketing Giles Robinson, and the two will have responsibility for client relationships, with McFarlane focusing his efforts on clients in the North of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Giles Robinson, Head of Sales & Marketing at SVM Asset Management, says: “This is an exciting time for SVM; we have some great performance in our funds and having someone of Kevin’s calibre joining the business will allow us to raise the awareness of our funds and fund managers.”
McFarlane says: “I relish the opportunity to work with Giles, the fund managers and marketing team, to engage with our clients, existing and new. In a time of general consolidation for the industry, I have become increasingly aware of the power of boutiques and I believe SVM is a great example of this with some outstanding fund performance across their range.”
