Barron joins from JP Morgan Asset Management, where he managed relationships throughout the UK, across both retail and wholesale channels.
He will report to Gary Tuffield, RWC’s Head of UK Intermediary Distribution.
Tuffield says: “Recruiting someone of Geordie’s calibre is a further sign of RWC’s intent in the UK market, as we continue to ensure we can fully support our UK Wealth Management clients.”
Barron adds: “RWC Partners is an independent, forward-thinking business with a structure that gives its world class fund management teams the tools and autonomy to concentrate on delivering consistent outperformance for clients. It has a genuine focus on delivering the best possible experience to the people who entrust their money to it, and I am excited to work with Gary and the wider team at a very exciting time for the business.”
