Alastair is a consultant to the investment committee at North Capital, with a focus on macro research and asset allocation policy.

Alastair has enjoyed over three decades at the front end of global financial markets in both investment management and securities broking. Having cut his teeth as an equity fund manager at Ivory and Sime in the early 90’s, he switched across to the sales side of the business with Deutsche Bank and Lehman Brothers during which his experience and investing interests became increasingly global and multi-asset.

Alastair reverted back to active investment management, specifically in the hedge fund arena, where he was instrumental in setting up and managing the Lansdowne macro fund and thereafter launched a global equity fund with Rivercrest Capital. He has a proven track record of generating positive, low correlation returns in both rising and falling equity markets.

He retains a passion for asset markets, accompanied by a love of sport notably football, rugby and golf.
