Jane Sydenham

Spear’s Review

Jane Sydenham started her career at Montagu Loebl Stanley, which later became Fleming Private Asset Management. She joined Rathbones in 2001 and now works as an investment director from the firm’s London office.

When it comes to investing, ‘Clarity is needed, and people really appreciate it,’ says Sydenham. ‘Whether you act ethically and with principles absolutely shapes the way everyone thinks about you. If you act with some integrity now, you’ll reap the rewards long term.’

Sydenham specialises in the portfolio management for individuals, family groups and their associated trusts, charities and pension funds. She is regularly sought out by the media for comment, and has appeared on the Today programme on BBC Radio 4 and Wake up to Money on BBC Radio 5. She also contributes to the Financial Times, the Times and other titles on issues relevant to private clients.
