Ex-Alliance Trust Investments head joins Oldfield

Former Alliance Trust Investments head Edward Troughton has joined asset manager Oldfield Partners (OP) as a partner, focusing on business development.

Mr Troughton joins OP from his most recent role as principal representative officer and head of business development at Bank of London and The Middle East. Based in Dubai, he led the company’s asset management business in the Middle East.

After nearly six years at Alliance Trust Investments, Mr Troughton left his role as managing director in October 2013. Prior to Alliance Trust, Mr Troughton spent nearly eight years as a managing director at BlackRock.

Jamie Carter, chief executive at OP, said: “We are thrilled to have attracted someone of Ed’s calibre and experience at a time when we are starting to make our strategies available to a wider selection of investors.”
