Artemis has added analyst Laura Corbetta (pictured) to its SmartGARP investment team.

Corbetta has worked across equity, multi-asset and loan sectors during her 10-year investment career. Corbetta joins from River Global Investors, where she spent five years as a quantitative researcher. She also has previous experience with Natixis and the London Stock Exchange Group.

She becomes the fifth member of the SmartGARP team, joining portfolio managers Philip Wolstencroft and Raheel Altaf, analyst Aalok Sathe and investment director and analyst Harry Eastwood.

Artemis manages around £5.8bn across the SmartGARP funds, which use a proprietary systematic investment process built on robust datasets.

Last month, the firm expanded the range through the launch of a Luxembourg-domiciled European equities fund.

The Artemis Funds (Lux) – SmartGARP Pan-European Equity fund added to Artemis’s existing Europe ex-UK and UK strategies, which utilise the SmartGARP stock-screening tool as part of its investment process.
