RWC CEO Dan Mannix said: “It is a great vote of confidence that a significant portion of the recently available shares have been bought back by RWC and our people; such a commitment to owning equity deeply reinforces the long-term dedication of our entire organisation, both to RWC itself and to our clients.

“I have known Seth Brennan and Tony Leness, the founders of Lincoln Peak, for over seven years and I am confident that they truly appreciate and understand our organisation, our culture and our vision for the future, as well as supporting the autonomy we offer our investment teams – another of our core principles which we unequivocally believe leads to better outcomes for all stakeholders.”
