Investment manager Select Asset Management has appointed an investment advisory panel to its investment committee as part of a move to make more robust investment decisions for investors.
The panel members were drawn from a diverse range of investment areas, including macro-economics, alternative investments, property, hedge funds, traditional assets and fixed interest.
The current members are Aspect Capital co-founder Michael Adam, Barwon Investment Partners partners Sam Armstrong and Rob Morrison, St Davids Rd Advisory director David Bell and Axa Australia investment partner Bartholomew Dowling.
"We are very pleased to have the opportunity to gain alternative insight on a range of investment ideas from such high-calibre investment professionals," Select chief investment officer Dominic McCormick said.
"The combined expertise and extensive networks of the panel leverages Select's own research and investment capacity and represent a significant benefit to our investors."
Select said it planned to add more members to the panel in the future.
