Justin Warton, who started at the company in Sydney last week, is now the seventh member on the investment team.
Mr Warton joins ECP from First Sentier Investors where he worked as an investment analyst and previously served two years in London with First State’s European team.
“At ECP we are strong believers in sharing knowledge among the investment team, with no one individual having a monopoly on information or a louder voice than others,” ECP chairman and CIO, Dr Manny Pohl, said.
“Justin will be an excellent fit for the team.
“His appointment comes at a time when we are experiencing strong growth in the business, with the current economic environment very favourable for our flagship ECP Growth Companies Fund.
“Justin’s track record in emerging companies, as well as his overseas experience, will further enhance the breadth and depth of the team’s capabilities.”
