Frontier Investment Consulting has promoted three of its staff to the position of ‘senior consultant’.
Consultants Leigh Gavin, Allison Hill and Chris Trevillyan all received the promotion. Senior consultants are responsible for running client teams and mentoring junior staff, on top of responsibilities for both manager and investment research. Frontier Investment Consulting’s managing director, Fiona Trafford-Walker, said: “Frontier seeks to grow, and reward, talent internally, and Leigh’s, Allison’s and Chris’s promotions to senior consultant reflect this philosophy.”; Frontier is one of Australia’s largest institutional asset consulting firms, with over $95 billion in funds under advice.
There is one investment area where Insignia’s $180 billion super arm has not lost money for the past 17 years, which is what it calls the insurance-related investments. The alternatives strategy is gaining popularity among asset owners due to its diversification benefit, but Insignia’s super and asset management investment chief Dan Farmer warns it is a space where investors can suffer if they “stumble in without doing the homework”.
