Bailey McCann, Opalesque New York: RWC Partners confirms that it has hired a 15 person investment team previously at Everest Capital to establish a new Emerging, Frontier and Asia equity business. To support the team, RWC Partners has established a new office in Miami and is in the process of establishing an office in Singapore, subject to regulatory approvals.
RWC Partners has established new funds replicating those previously managed by the team, covering long-only Emerging and Frontier markets and long-short Frontier and Asian strategies.
"An extremely unusual set of circumstances allowed us to recruit a fully formed institutional quality Emerging and Frontier markets investment team," said Dan Mannix, CEO of RWC Partners. RWC Partners is an independent investment manager with approximately $10.1bn in assets under management.
The Emerging and Frontier market team is jointly headed up by John Malloy and James Johnstone. Malloy is primarily responsible for the Emerging Market portfolios and will be backed up by his co-portfolio manager, Thomas Allraum. Johnstone is responsible for the Frontier Market portfolios and backed up by his co-portfolio manager, Luis Laboy. Cem Akyurek has joined as the team’s Emerging Market economist, while in Singapore, Garret Mallal will serve as portfolio manager and Min Chen will be focused on Asian equity research. Additionally, RWC Partners has recruited Simon Onabowale to head up trading in Miami.
