Andrew Godfrey takes responsibility for manager selection and manager development in North America. Godfrey joins from Focus Investment Group where he was head of the Emerging Manager Program, responsible for seeding and development of early stage hedge fund managers, and a member of the Asset Management Committee. Godfrey’s responsibilities will also include distribution for North America. He will be based in the New York office.
Revere Capital Advisors was founded by a number of former Man Group executives, including ex-chairman and chief executive Harvey McGrath and former chief financial officer Dan Barnett, to invest in early stage hedge fund managers.
