Spear's Review

A portfolio manager at wealth management firm James Hambro, Mark Richmond-Watson specialises in fund analysis and portfolio construction for private individuals and trusts.

Richmond-Watson joined the company in 2011, and his expertise in the industry is further aided by his multitude of qualifications, including an investment management certificate and a CISI diploma in private client advice and management. 

Interestingly, Mark is also a renowned jockey and compares the competitive process of riding to the process of finding the right hedge fund manager. He says: ‘It’s not dissimilar to picking a winning racehorse. You’re looking for a good stable, an excellent jockey [and] the right horse for the right conditions.’
