At Credit Suisse, Surguy worked as head of investment management at its UK unit.
Commenting on Surguy, 7IM CEO Tom Sheridan said: “His multi-asset background is a perfect fit for 7IM, while his experience of also managing equity portfolio management teams will bring additional expertise.”
“I would also like to thank Ian Jensen-Humphreys, whose excellent stewardship over the last year as acting CIO has given us the time and space to conduct a rigorous search and who remains a huge asset to our senior team,” Sheridan noted.
Surguy previously served as the CIO for EMEA at Morgan Stanley Private Wealth Management.
