Hanover Investors has appointed Brett Lankester, the former Chief Executive of UBP London, as a Senior Partner.
Lankester is spearheading the development of the firm’s capital raising and investor relations capabilities. Along with Matthew Peacock, the Founder and Chairman of the specialist investor, and with other Senior Partners, he will also be involved in developing the strategic direction of the firm which operates in under-analysed and illiquid markets.
Lankester is a senior figure in the sector; he was UBP’s London Chief Executive for three years following the Swiss private bank’s acquisition of ACPI Investment Managers, which he co-founded in 2007. Previously he spent 14 years at Goldman Sachs, where he was a Managing Director.
