Boutique manager Above the Index Asset Management (ATI) has hired Ben Lyons as a senior analyst to its investment team.
Lyons has more than 10 years' experience in financial services and has previously worked at Macquarie Securities and Citigroup.
"We have an investment team of eight people. We have now built a sufficient team," ATI chief investment officer Simon Burge said.
ATI is supported by boutique incubator Ascalon, which owns 37 per cent of the firm.
To date, ATI has secured about $470 million in funds under management from the retail market.
"With the support of Ascalon we will be looking to expand our distribution in the institutional market," Burge said.
