European Asset Management A SHEFFIELD HAWORTH PUBLICATION A summary featuring people news, industry updates with market trends and analysis EUROPEAN ASSET Patrick Morrissey Charles Bruce-Smythe MANAGEMENT Henry Spence 2019 Peter Hughes Tom Eagar Henry Milton 2019, Asset Management Overview – Europe MARKET OVERVIEW Despite headlines warning about the damage of Brexit, trade wars, tariffs and a global slowdown, Sheffield Haworth has seen robust hiring across the market in 2019. Hiring distribution leaders continues apace, despite the likes of Aberdeen Standard Investments letting entire teams go, though this year has seen an emphasis on the institutional side. ESG hiring demand continues to grow and as regulation and client expectations are raised and demand is outstripping supply. Hiring in investment is still strong, with firms looking for growth hires as well as replacement hires. Finally, we have continued to see the growth in private markets, particularly on the institutional side, as investors continue to search for yields in a pressured and competitive environment. In short, it is business as usual. ▪ In light of liquidity challenges in Woodford’s flagship open TABLE OF CONTENTS ended Equity Income Fund, as well as others, Mark Carney has announced a new regulatory focus on investment trusts.

He was most recently Chief Executive of Two Sigma before this Polar Capital have appointed Sandy Black as Chief Investment Officer from JO Hambro Capital Management where he was Investment Director BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT Hiring across distribution has been strong, as firms continue to upskill their teams. As the client base becomes increasingly more sophisticated, asset managers are looking to hire more technical sales professionals who have a demonstrable understanding of the underlying product as well as the breakdown of client’s portfolios. Challenges and Opportunities Historically, the institutional market, both from a direct sales and consultant relations perspective, was focused more on relationship management versus technical understanding of product. As such, there is disparity in the quality of candidates from an intellectual perspective. The emerging theme we have seen within the institutional market is that the best rated sales professionals have been the ‘up-and-comers’ rather than the individuals with 20+ years of experience. The former now tend to reference as having greater technical abilities and as more ‘solutions orientated’ in their approach to clients. Firms are increasingly looking for solutions-based sales leaders, moving away from the more traditional transactional model.

Farmar — Publishing Services Cover by Jacques Teljeur Typeset by Printset & Design Ltd Printed by Criterion Press Ltd EDITORIAL This year's Record appears at a time of significant anniversaries and changes. 1991 is the five hundredth anniversary of the birth of St Ignatius Loyola — an event that will be marked in Jesuit institutions all over the world during the Ignatian Centenary Year, which ends on the Feast of St Ignatius 31 July 1991. 1990 is also the four hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the Society of Jesus. Gonzaga College itself opened its doors in 1950 — originally staffed by Fr Charles O'Conor (Rector), Fr Bill White (Prefect of Studies), Fr John Murphy and Fr Tim Hamilton, the only surviving founder; so the College is celebrating its fortieth birthday in 1990. The changes of course on the world scene in the past year have been enormous, especially in eastern Europe, and at the time of editing the Gulf crisis is monopolising the world news — sharp reminders of the provisional and unpredictable in our lives. At another level significant change comes to Gonzaga this year also with the appointment of a new headmaster, Mr Patrick Potts, by the Manager, Fr Paddy Crowe SJ — a change announced a year ago by the Provincial, Fr Philip Harnett SJ.

  • Speech by Mark Carney at the Lord Mayor's Banquet
    Enable, Empower, Ensure: A New Finance for the New Economy Speech given by Mark Carney, Governor of the Bank of England Speech at the Lord Mayor’s Banquet for Bankers and Merchants of the City of London at the Mansion House, London 20 June 2019 I am grateful to Jennifer Nemeth and James Benford for their assistance in preparing these remarks, and to Julia Kowalski, Tom Mutton, Varun Paul, Simon Scorer, Oliver Thew and the Climate Hub team for their help with background research and analysis. 1 All speeches are available online at www.bankofengland.co.uk/news/speeches New Economy – New Finance There’s a new economy emerging driven by changes in technology, demographics and the environment. This new economy requires a new finance. A new finance to serve the digital economy. A new finance with products that are more cost effective, better tailored, and more inclusive. A new finance to support the transition to a sustainable economy. A new finance that balances innovation with resilience. With its leadership in fintech and green finance, the UK private sector is creating the new finance, but your efforts will be more effective with the right conditions in which to innovate and the level playing fields on which to compete. New Finance - New Bank That’s why a new finance demands a new Bank of England. Our strategy is to enable innovation and to empower competition, while ensuring monetary and financial stability. Our levers are the hard and soft infrastructure that we control: Our hard infrastructure, such as access to our balance sheet and access to our Real-Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) system, the heart of the UK payments system.

  • Bank of England Has Ratcheted up Its Public Discourse on the Topic of Diversity and Why It Is Important to Financial Services – As Illustrated by the Chart Below
    Over the past six months, the Bank of England has ratcheted up its public discourse on the topic of diversity and why it is important to financial services – as illustrated by the chart below. The Bank finds its voice on diversity Number of speeches on diversity given by Bank of England speakers over the past five years 12 3 3 1 0 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 Source: New Financial analysis of Bank of England speeches At first glance, this flurry of activity appears to have come from a standing start, but in fact it has been building slowly over a number of years. In this short paper, we build a timeline showing how the Bank’s thinking on diversity and inclusion and its position as a role model is evolving, based on the Bank’s own publications and public announcements. We will highlight the key messages for the financial services industry to note. This paper asks: • How does diversity fit into the Bank’s remit? • Why is the Bank talking about diversity? • What is the Bank saying about diversity? • What should the financial services industry read into the Bank’s approach? Here are our top five takeaways: 1) The Bank has named diversity as a strategic priority across multiple strands, and it is encouraging the financial services industry to follow suit. 2) The Bank wants to be a role model for the wider financial services sector and exert its ‘soft power’ to influence firms. 3) The Bank focuses on diversity to reflect the public it serves, to build trust, and it believes diversity leads to more creative thinking and reduces the risks of groupthink and bias.

  • The Regulatory Overlay on Esg Investing
    White Paper THE REGULATORY OVERLAY ON ESG INVESTING www.morganlewis.com September 2020 September 9, 2020 Dear clients, friends, and colleagues: On behalf of my fellow co-authors, thank you for the opportunity to share an international perspective on the regulatory landscape governing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investment. ESG is an incredibly fast-growing and evolving area that presents challenging considerations for global asset managers. Our global investment funds team has prepared this White Paper as a regulatory framework to navigate such considerations across the United States (authors Miranda Lindl O’Connell and Julie Stapel), the United Kingdom and the European Union (author William Yonge), and Asia (authors Joel Seow and Helen Fok). Over the last decade, the consideration of ESG factors in making investment decisions has grown in importance. As stated by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) in its Strategy on Sustainable Finance, “The financial markets are at a point of change as it can be observed that investor preferences are shifting towards an interest in financial products that incorporate environmental, social and governance factors, which have increased rapidly over the last few years. Moreover, sustainability factors are increasingly affecting the risks, returns and value of investments.”1 Promoters of ESG in the marketplace often point to the growing number of institutional investors and asset managers that have become signatories to the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment

  • Breaking the Tragedy of the Horizon – Climate Change and Financial Stability
    Mark Carney: Breaking the tragedy of the horizon – climate change and financial stability Speech by Mr Mark Carney, Governor of the Bank of England and Chairman of the Financial Stability Board, at Lloyd’s of London, London, 29 September 2015. * * * I am grateful to Rhys Phillips and Iain de Weymarn for their assistance in preparing these remarks, and to Michael Sheren, Clare Ashton, Matthew Scott and Professor Myles Allen for their comments. I’m grateful to Lloyd’s for the invitation to speak tonight on the occasion of the first City Dinner held in this magnificent, eponymous “Room”. Lloyd’s is the bedrock of the UK insurance industry. An industry whose direct contribution to the UK economy is impressive: 300,000 high-paying jobs and £25bn in annual GDP. Its economic contribution goes much deeper. Insurance supports households, companies and investors, safeguarding them from perils they could not otherwise shoulder. It matches long-term savings and investment, financing the infrastructure essential to productivity. With its unique perspective and skill set, insurance diversifies the financial system and reinforces its resilience. Since 1688 Lloyd’s has, in the great tradition of the City, served both the UK and the world, providing protection against the perils of the age; helping enterprise and trade to thrive. From its origins in marine insurance, the Lloyd’s market has evolved constantly to meet the needs of a rapidly changing world. The first excess of loss reinsurance was created here. Modern catastrophe cover was born with your decision to stand by policyholders after the San Francisco earthquake.

    MARK CARNEY: FINDING VALUE IN VALUES MAY 2021 Featuring: Mark Carney, Governor, Bank of England (2013 – 2020) Hanneke Smits, Chief Executive Officer, BNY Mellon Investment Management Moderated by Tom Hoare, Deputy Chief Communications Officer, BNY Mellon TOM HOARE: Hi everyone, it’s Tom Hoare. Thanks for joining us for another episode of our BNY Mellon Perspectives podcast series. We’ve got a great one for you today. We recently hosted our inaugural Future First Forum, where we brought together industry experts and our own leaders here at the firm to talk about one of the most important topics of our time, and that’s how financial companies, and really every industry, are working together to address environmental, social and governance considerations, also known as ESG. We’ve seen a lot of activity in this space in the last two years especially, as the impacts of climate change, a global pandemic and unprecedented issues around racial injustice have come to the forefront. But it’s been a long-time priority for us at BNY Mellon. Being in business for more than 200 years has taught us a lot about sustainability, and we viewed it as a great privilege and responsibility to be a convener on this topic at our Future First Forum. And our keynote speaker at the forum was Mark Carney. Mark was the former governor of the Bank of England and currently the United Nations Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance. He’s an incredible leader. For the conversation, he is joined by our very own Hanneke Smits, our Chief Executive Officer of BNY Mellon Investment Management.
