Quilter Investors has bolstered its fund research team with the appointment of Alex Daniels as a manager research analyst.

He joins from Bordier UK, where he focused on equity, fixed income and alternative funds as an investment analyst.

In the role, Daniels will be responsible for analysing sector-specific and thematic equity funds, which will be considered for inclusion into the firm’s multi-asset ranges including WealthSelect and Cirilium.

Kristian Cassar, Quilter’s head of manager research, said: “I am delighted to welcome Alex to our manager research team at Quilter Investors. We are always looking for ways to enhance the research capabilities of the team and support the portfolio managers where we can.

“We see significant scope particularly for sustainable thematic investing over the long term and I believe Alex’s experience and track record will help us with identifying an extensive range of opportunities.”

In October, Quilter added Adrian Todd to the team as a senior manager research analyst, focused on alternatives.

In the firm’s interim results last week (7 August), Quilter reported a 164% uptick in core net inflows to £1.7bn for the 2024 financial year.
