Investec Investment Bank & Securities has appointed Paul Locke as a senior fund analyst to its closed-end fund team. He replaces John Davey.

Locke has over 18 years of experience in the closed-end fund and investment trust market and previously worked as a country risk analyst with business information provider, Dun & Bradstreet.

Investec has also appointed Darren Vickers, previously at Westhouse Securities, who will work on the corporate finance side of the closed-end fund team in a newly created position. In previous roles he has completed transactions such as initial public offerings and secondary fundraisings, both at Westhouse and at Charles Stanley Securities.
