Commenting on the appointments, Minio-Paluello said: “The creation of the family office team is in part a natural progression of our distribution model. It is also in response to a growing demand from family offices for our innovative and specialist investment products that help investors face the challenges created by unprecedented low yields and the intervention of central banks.

“Our heritage as an asset manager that is part of a privately owned banking group gives us an intimate understanding and track record of managing the invested assets of families and with Ahmed and Caroline’s expertise, we hope to grow our coverage of family offices across Europe.”
