Jakob Meidal

Spear’s Review

Prior to joining AlTi, London-based private banker Jakob Meidal held positions with Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs and Pictet.

Meidal specialises in advising clients on ‘long-term asset allocation, portfolio construction and single asset class solutions’. He started his financial career focusing on the Nordic countries and still maintains a significant client base who are connected to the region. He has previously told Spear’s that in the Nordic countries specifically, and especially among the young, there is ‘a focus on sustainable, socially responsible-type investment’, which is now de rigueur in mainstream UK wealth management too.

He believes that ‘a good wealth manager needs to be curious; he needs to listen and be close to the clients. There is no solution that would fit two families the same way.’
