Insync grows team
Sydney-based firm, Insync Fund Managers, has appointed a new business development manager to its flagship Insync Global Titans Fund.
The company announced it had appointed former Yellow Brick Road national manager of Wealth Operations, Yu Ming Cawthorn, to the role.
Insync chief investment officer, Monik Kotecha, said the company was excited about Cawthorn joining the firm as she brought with her extensive experience working with platforms and assisting advisers in the independent financial adviser (IFA) space and wider retail market.
He said that together with Insync's investment team, she would be touring Queensland and NSW over the next few weeks introducing the fund to regional advisers.
"It is a great opportunity for us to meet with advisers and talk about how to select investments able to provide consistent returns, at lower levels of risk which meet their client's expectations. This can be particularly challenging during periods of market uncertainty and low economic growth like we're experiencing today," Kotecha said.
Insync foreshadowed Cawthorn's appointment as the first of a number of key appointments to its distribution team to be announced in the coming weeks. The expansion is to meet growing interest from retail and institutional investors looking to invest offshore, and actively manage market and currency risk within the portfolio.
