Leading Australian equity manager, DNR Capital, is pleased to announce the addition of Sam Twidale to its investment team. Mr Twidale has over 14 years investment experience, having previously worked as a portfolio manager at Schroders and equity research analyst at Citigroup in London.
He takes on the role of portfolio manager and will focus on the development of a new investment strategy and product in the emerging companies space.
“We are looking to complement and build on the successful investment philosophy of DNR Capital High Conviction and Income strategies”, noted DNR Capital CIO, Jamie Nicol.
“Sam brings a wealth of investment experience both domestically and overseas. This will help us to continue identifying quality domestic businesses with sustainable competitive advantages, especially those emerging local companies with the ability to grow into global franchises.”
“I am very excited at the opportunity to join a team of highly successful investors, with an excellent long-term performance track record in the Australian market. We see significant opportunities to add value in the smaller segment of the market, where we see a range of highly innovative and disruptive business models emerging in fast growing sectors such as technology, financials, consumer and healthcare”, added Sam Twidale, Portfolio Manager.
Robert White, DNR Capital CEO, said “the new emerging companies product is scheduled for launch later in 2018 and further details about the product will be made available at that time”.
