The timing of the launch could not be confirmed, but this would be the second fund distributed by GAM and run by THS.
A spokesperson for GAM said there has been a single discussion on the topic, but that it was way too premature to say the fund was launching.
THS is an independent fund management firm with approximately £5bn of funds under management as at the end of September.
It manages long term and long-only portfolios of Global and European equities and follows a bottom-up unconstrained investment approach.
If the Global Equity Income Fund were to be launched with GAM, it would likely fit in with these characteristics.
