He had previously held senior roles within the fixed income desks at MSG & Partners, Investec and Credit Suisse.

In a LinkedIn post, Brain said: “My fixed income and multi-asset career saw financial crisis, high inflation, deflation, high rates and negative rates, stock market crashes and also a pandemic.

“We didn’t always get it right but we have been able to grow the wealth of our clients and be a success of which I am very proud. I have been fortunate to work with many talented people in an industry that has constantly evolved,” he added.
