Former Franklin Templeton duo Michael Clements and Claire Manson have replaced Eric Bendahan at SYZ Asset Management.
The European equity managers have been hired as Mr Bendahan announced he was leaving SYZ to set up his own firm.
Mr Clements and Ms Manson had left Franklin Templeton at the start of August, having previously managed the €2.8bn (£2.2bn) Franklin European Growth fund with Robert Mazzuoli.
Mr Clements has been appointed as SYZ’s head of European equities and will manage the Oyster European Opportunities, Oyster European Selection and Oyster Continental European Selection funds.
Ms Manson has taken on the management of the Oyster European Mid & Small Cap fund.
