Insparo Asset Management has added Merihan Tadrous to its operations team.



As operations analyst, Tadrous will work closely with chief operating officer Jon Laidlow and finance and operations manager James Gore in the day-to-day operations management of the firm’s Africa and Middle East fund.
 
The Insparo Africa & Middle East Fund makes investments in a range of sectors across the MENA and Sub-Saharan Africa regions.
 
In her day to day role, Tadrous will be responsible for all operational duties including trade settlement cycle, cash and position reconciliations for Insparo, which offers frontier market investment opportunities through the fund.
 
Prior to joining Insparo, Tadrous spent five years at GlobeOp Financial Services. As associate manager (operations), Tadrous managed the operations team in Mumbai and was responsible for providing middle and back office trade support to UK and offshore hedge funds as well as regularly liaising with hedge fund managers and prime brokers.
 
Laidlow says: “An efficient operations team is an integral part of the modern asset manager, and an increasingly important consideration for investors. The projects we have on the horizon look set to accelerate even further the growth we have experienced since launch, and it is crucial that we maintain Insparo’s high operations standards as the firm grows. Merihan will help ensure that our back and middle offices continue to run as smoothly as our investors have come to expect.”
 
Tadrous adds: “I’m delighted to be joining a firm as fast moving and ambitious as Insparo. For a company that’s only two years old, Insparo is well ahead of the curve in terms of both structure and performance, and the balance they’ve struck between an experienced and talented management team and a sound operations side is an abiding reason for that. Maintaining that balance will be key to the success of the firm’s future plans, and I’m excited to be a part of that.”
