UK-based Guinness Global Investors is to acquire the public markets division of London-based Foresight Capital Management for an undisclosed sum. The deal includes seven strategies across real assets and sustainable and impact funds.
Foresight’s listed real assets team will join the Guinness real assets team led by Mark Brennan, who co-developed and managed the real assets strategies at Foresight prior to joining Guinness. Nick Scullion, partner and head of FCM, will remain with Foresight.
Foresight’s Sustainable and Impact team will sit alongside Guinness’s team managing the Guinness Sustainable Energy strategy, launched in 2006, and the Guinness Global Environment strategy, launched in 2025.
Edward Guinness, CEO, Guinness Global Investors, said: “The diversification that listed real assets offer is as important as ever in today’s markets. Reuniting Mark Brennan with the funds he launched at FCM is a great opportunity to build our real assets franchise.”
