- Investing
Simon has been a senior figure in the international investment management industry for more than three decades. After a career spanning more than a decade at S.G. Warburg, UBS, HSBC James Capel and Nomura, Simon created one of the industry’s first dedicated research and investment consulting businesses, Global Fund Analysis.
He also played a pioneering role in seeding many of the incipient European hedge funds through the Fortune Group, that went on to become one of the UK’s pre-eminent hedge fund advisory firms before being successfully sold to Close Brothers Group PLC, in 2006.
We discuss why emerging markets is ripe for stock picking, why investors are losers in the shift to passive investing, and why investors should not be perennially optimistic.
