Vertium Asset Management has announced the appointment of Tomas Vasquez as its new portfolio manager/equity analyst, reporting to chief investment officer, Jason Teh.
Vertium, which is an equity specialist and one of the four boutiques distributed by Copia Investment Partners, said that Vasquez had more than 15 years of experience in equity research.
He joined from Investors Mutual where he was an equities analyst for four years. Prior to that, he held a number of similar roles at CBA, ABN AMRO and Aspect Huntley.
