In addition, he will work alongside Harry Talbot Rice to manage the Sarasin EquiSar fund that invests in both developed and emerging market funds.

Julio, who previously served as deputy manager of the Sarasin Equisar Global Thematic fund, will be replaced by Mark Whitehead.
Julio joined Sarasin from Ignis Asset Management, where he served as a portfolio manager focusing on global emerging market equities. Prior to this, Julio worked at Baring Asset Management and HSBC Global Banking and Markets.

Guy Monson, CEO at Sarasin, said: "Mark joins at a time when we see long term thematic opportunities emerging in the restructuring of state owned enterprises, the growing strength of emerging markets franchises as well as key security of supply opportunities in food, energy and minerals.

"His experience will also help in harnessing growing dividend flows from the emerging world which are increasingly important for equity income mandates of our charities and private investors."
