Gaspard Bidot will join the boutique asset manager in Sydney where he will be responsible for stock selection and analysis, with a key focus on Europe.
“There is a huge growing need for infrastructure investment globally, and Gaspard’s appointment will further enhance our coverage of our global investment universe,” 4D CIO, Sarah Shaw, said.
“We believe that infrastructure will be the key to economic prosperity in a post COVID-19 world, as infrastructure provides the basic services that are essential for communities to function, and for economies to prosper and grow.
“Factors such as population growth, energy transition and the emergence of the middle class are all driving the need for infrastructure investing. Gaspard’s experience in financial modelling and valuation will be central in identifying global infrastructure investment opportunities.
“In addition, he is actively involved in organisations fostering environmental change, social inclusion and diversity, all important to 4D’s wider remit.”
Most recently Mr Bidot, who is also a CFA charterholder and CFM, worked as associate director at PwC’s corporate advisory division for nearly seven years across France, Germany and Australia.
