UK-based Vestra Wealth has added investment managers Jacqueline Crawley and Miles Berryman to its London office, recruiting both from BNP Paribas.

Crawley was latterly a senior wealth manager at the French banking giant, managing some £300 million ($476 million) in client assets, while Berryman was an investment manager, working on both discretionary and advisory mandates.

In her new role Crawley will be advising high net worth individuals, trusts, pension funds and charities; Berryman will manage both discretionary and advisory portfolios for UK and international clients, on and offshore, from the personal and corporate sector.

Towards the end of last year Vestra bolstered its Jersey operation, which launched in 2010, with the addition of a trio of portfolio managers. Neville Falla and Trevor Daghorn joined Vestra from Standard Bank Jersey, while Suzi Humphrey came across from Allied Irish Bank.

Vestra, which was established in 2008, had around £2.6 billion in assets under management at end January.
