David Malpas

Spear’s Review

‘So far so good’ is how David Malpas describes business at Vermeer Partners. The former Quilter Cheviot partner was a founding partner when the boutique investment manager was born in 2019.

Vermeer Partners avoids putting its clients into a ‘set model’ approach, Malpas says. With investment managers taking on the roles of both portfolio manager and relationship manager, clients are able to receive all-round care. Malpas describes client relationships as a ‘very tight bond’. He tells Spear’s: ‘We pride ourselves on providing our clients with a unique, personal level of service, but using a very up-to-date and expert investment process to ensure that the client gets the best of both worlds.’

Clients of the firm – private individuals and families as well as charities, foundations and trusts – are in good hands: Vermeer Partners has over £2 billion in assets under management and over 40 dedicated staff.
