‘Moving to Mulvaney is a great opportunity for me personally and also underlines Mulvaney’s commitment to developing its business and strengthening its support functions,’ McNaughton says. ‘I am joining a fund manager with a talented team, an investment strategy with strong long term performance and the prospect of significant growth and success.’
‘We are very pleased to welcome Alistair to our growing team,’ says the firm’s founder and chief investment officer Paul Mulvaney. ‘We are committed to growing our business from a robust and stable platform. Alistair brings a wealth of legal, regulatory and business experience from leading institutions, and he will play a leading role in the further development of Mulvaney’s business.’
