Background

About David Newman

I am an entrepreneurial investment professional with over 30 years experience in credit related markets. I was lucky enough to have helped develop the growth of European high yield markets in the 1990s and more recently drive institutional investor interest in Trade Finance. I have a history of setting up, and following through, new business lines for companies I have worked with. I set up one of the UK’s first credit research teams at Hambros, before growing high yield research at SBC Warburg and Citigroup - each time receiving best in class third party awards. After the GFC I moved to the buy side and set up a Global High Yield business for Rogge, diversifying into Multi-Asset Credit in 2014 and Trade Finance. I am also exploring the democratisation of private markets. All current strategies have strong and consistent track records and while I love innovating, investment remains my passion. I am a champion of diversity and have helped develop the careers of a number of young people across wide backgrounds as well as working with a London school to increase awareness of The City and provide careers advice.
