JP Morgan Asset Management has appointed Simon Crinage as its new head
of investment trust business, with immediate effect. Crinage, who will report
to Jasper Berens, head of UK funds management, replaces David Barron, who left
the firm earlier this year.
"Investment trusts have always been popular with both private investors
and the discretionary wealth management community. The regulatory landscape
changes caused by the implementation of RDR should also open up opportunities
for the sector to reach the independent financial advice market, where it has
historically been under-represented," Crinage said in a statement. Crinage has been with JP Morgan Asset Management
for 28 years, more than 10 of which have been within the investment trust team.
