Lombard Odier Investment Managers has launched a family office team covering Europe and led by Ahmed Husain, formerly of Altice Capital.
The team will focus on expanding relationships with European single-family offices with a net worth of over £1 billion.
Caroline Crochet, formerly of Northern Trust, acts as head of family office relations.
Based in London, the team reports to Carolina Minio-Paluello, global head of sales and solutions, who said the creation of the team was part of a natural progression of Lombard Odier IM’s distribution model.
Ahmed has previously worked as an adviser to ultra-wealthy clients of Goldman Sachs, and more recently was a partner at Altice Capital.
Crochet was at Northern Trust for over five years and roles included regional client development manager for family and private individuals.
