SEB has integrated its offering within alternative investments by merging the SEB-owned London boutique Key Asset Management unit with the SEB Alternative Investment Team (AIT) in Stockholm . 

The new team will be managed by Mikael Spångberg (pictured) as Managing Director, Stockholm and Chris Rule as deputy and Chief Investment Officer, London.

The two investment teams have worked together informally for the past few years and bring different specialities to the new venture. Key has one of the oldest track records in the Fund of Hedge Funds industry while the SEB AIT brings competence within the seeding and incubation business. 
 
The changes coincides with the departure of Chris Jones who is leaving for new challenges after seven years at Key.
