Paris-based asset management firm Carmignac has appointed Christian Elliott as a business development director for the UK.
In the role, Elliott will support the firm’s growth strategy, with a focus on the wholesale and institutional client segments in London and the Channel Islands.
He will report to Gavin Ward, who joined the company in September 2023 as head of UK business development.
Elliott began his career at Fidelity FundsNetwork in 2000, and then moved to Invesco Perpetual as a broker liaison executive until 2007. For almost a decade, he was UK discretionary sales manager at UBS Global Asset Management, then sales director at Man GLG, responsible for London and the Channel Islands.
Ward said: “Christian is joining Carmignac at an exciting time in our UK development. We’ve recently celebrated the fifth anniversary of our UK OEIC range and implemented a new business development strategy focused primarily on wholesale and institutional investors.”
