Mandarine Unique will be managed by Diane Bruno, Marie-Jeanne Missoffe and Marie Guigou. The fund will invest in small to mid-cap European companies which have unique business models and considerable market share in niche markets.
Harrington Cooper aims at European small and mid-cap managers in the UK largely independently of Mandarine Gestion.
Harry Dickinson, managing partner of Harrington Cooper, said: "We expect to see strong interest from fund selectors who have been consistently telling us that there is a dearth of truly excellent European small cap managers available in the UK market.
"Mandarine Gestion is just the type of asset manager that Harrington Cooper aims to represent because its funds are high-conviction, have high Active Share and its fund managers are motivated by generating alpha for their investors," he added.
