Quilter has today appointed Simon Durling as investment director, who will be responsible for promoting Quilter’s full range of investment propositions.
This will include the promotion of the WealthSelect Managed Portfolio Service and the Cirilium portfolio range to advisers and external audiences. Durling will report to Andy Miller, lead investment director.
Investment outlook has improved, say DB pension schemes
Durling brings over 35 years of experience in asset management, wealth management, and financial services to Quilter. He has worked with notable firms such as Santander Asset Management, St. James’s Place, and Barclays Bank. At Santander Asset Management, he served as senior commercial strategist, overseeing enhancements in investment and marketing content, as well as playing an active role in investment risk, performance governance, and adviser training. He also acted as a market commentator as the author of the weekly blog, ‘State of Play’.
Ucits costs influenced by size, age, investment strategy and geography, study shows
Durling’s hire follows a triple investment director hire within Miller’s team earlier this year. Ryan Medlock and Filippo Madonia both joined from Royal London, while Nick Davison arrived from Liontrust, in a move to provide further support to financial advisers with its investment solutions.
