Coutts appoints three Senior Consultants to expanding Global Investment team

Coutts & Co has announced the appointment of three Senior Investment Consultants to its Global Investment Services team. Donna Airey, Francesca Cherubini-Stoughton and Glyn Thomas will report to Darren Norman, Senior Manager, Global Investment Services and will advise clients on a range of global investment service solutions.

Coutts has created these new Senior Investment Consultant roles to provide clients with sound investment advice that meets their needs and objectives in a turbulent market place and an increasingly complex investment environment. They will all work closely with private bankers to provide investment solutions, including delivering the bank’s investment philosophy and strategy, as well as delivering investment portfolios and products.

Gayle Schumacher, Global Co-Chief Investment Officer said: "These new appointments reflect our focus of widening the Coutts offering more towards investment, to provide a balance to our banking services. We want to provide clients with a full picture and ensure they have access to a broad service to provide all the investment advice they need. With this in mind we are ensuring our clients can speak to a named investment consultant, as well as their private banker and financial planner."

Donna Airey joins from Barclays Wealth where she was Investment Manager, managing discretionary portfolios for private clients. Previously she worked for Mondrian Investment Partners, where she was involved in managing institutional fixed income portfolios.

Francesca Cherubini Stoughton has over 11 years of experience in the financial industry including 10 years with UBS.

Glyn Thomas has been at Coutts & Co since 2004 and has over 20 years experience in the financial services industry. Prior to Coutts, he worked at BDO Stoy Hayward Wealth Management, Scottish Widows and HSBC, where he held a variety of investment and financial services roles.
