, an independent funds' distribution partner for boutique asset managers, has appointed Anna O’Donoghue (pictured below) as chief operating officer, effective immediately.

O’Donoghue began her career in the financial industry as a fund selector at IMS in 2002. She served in similar roles at F&C and AXA Architas before her promotion to investment chief operating officer in 2016. She then moved to Schroders in 2019 as head of operations and governance, and in 2021 became its global head of product development and governance – a position O’Donoghue held until taking up her role at Spring Capital.

"Anna’s appointment is a real coup for Spring Capital,” Justin Eede, director, Spring Capital, said. “As the business expands, our investment manager partners are increasingly working across different jurisdictions with different service providers. Anna’s considerable investment and governance experience will be invaluable as we grow, while continuing to deliver exceptional service for our investment manager partners and their clients.”
