Manager review

London-based manager Mark Hawtin has worked at Gam since 2008. He is the investment director responsible for running global long-only and long/short funds, investing in the disruptive growth and technology sectors, said McDermott.

Prior to joining Gam, Hatwin was a partner and portfolio manager at Marshall Wace Asset Management, where he ran one of Europe’s largest technology, media and telecoms hedge funds since 2000.

Previously, he spent seven years at Enskilda Securities, initially as head of sales, before taking responsibility for the international equity business, overseeing pan-European research and trading activities and around a quarter of the investment banking staff.

The Guinness Global Innovators Fund has been co-managed by Matthew Page and Ian Mortimer since October 2014. Both Oxford University alumni, Page joined Guinness Asset Management in 2005 and Mortimer in 2006.

Page previously worked as an analyst for Goldman Sachs, and Mortimer began his investment career at Guinness Asset Management.
