Chris Ivey
Spear’s Review
Heading up Cambridge Associates’ well-regarded European private client team, Chris Ivey oversees investments on behalf of UHNW families with institutional-scale assets in the UK, Europe and the Middle East.
The firm provides global investment management on a discretionary and non-discretionary basis. It has no pooled funds or model portfolios, instead creating each portfolio in a bottom-up fashion to meet client mandates. The firm’s independence, Ivey says, allows advisers to view the investment horizon ‘without any conflicts of interest’.
He tells Spear’s: ‘If you’re looking for independence, if you’re looking for global scale and if you’re looking for a decent amount of exposure to alternatives and you turn up at my door, then you’ve come to the right place.’
Adviser Profile
Chris Ivey leads the European family office practice at Cambridge Associates, where he works directly with family clients in both discretionary and advisory capacities. Ivey aims to build bespoke portfolios that generate strong long-term, risk-adjusted returns; allowing clients to meet and exceed their investment objectives.
‘We are an independent, privately owned firm,’ says Ivey. ‘When we invest our client’s assets, we sit on their side of the table and view the investment world through a lens that best suits them. The core value at our firm is “clients first”.’
Ivey leads a team of like-minded investors who endeavour to be the trusted investment advisers to private investors around the world.
