Martin, who has held senior positions at Rothschild Private Bank, JP Morgan and Fleming Private Asset Management, brings more than four decades of experience in investment management, the firm said in a statement. 

At Odey, he oversaw the LF Odey Portfolio fund and led the business through a period of transformation. At Oberon, Martin will work with the current team, which has plans to launch a global equities fund, the firm added. 

Martin will be joined by Odey colleague, Jake Bambridge, who will become funds operations manager at Oberon, the firm continued. He was previously the operations manager at Odey Wealth Management, where he managed over £650 million ($872 million) in assets under management. Bambridge has more than 17 years of experience in financial services. 

Odey Asset Management began closing in October 2023, after the company said it would be winding down its subsidiary Brook Asset Management in the wake of sexual harassment allegations against founder Crispin Odey, which he denies. 

"Peter's exceptional track record in building and managing funds at leading institutions will underpin the next phase of our growth. These appointments signal Oberon's intent to build a broader, deeper investment platform for our clients and shareholders," Simon McGivern, chief executive of Oberon, said.
