Magellan's former chairman and chief investment officer Hamish Douglass is making a return to the fund management firm - but in a new role.
Thursday, June 9th 2022, 12:19PM
Magellan has confirmed Hamish Douglass will return to the firm in a consultancy role from October 2022.
The firm said, in an announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), he would provide investment insights, geopolitical and macroeconomic views. The consultancy role would allow him to “deliver his expertise to investors free from board, management and portfolio responsibilities”.
He would cease as a permanent member of Magellan staff from 15 June and commence the consultancy role on 1 October.
Chairman, Hamish McLennan, said: "The board and Hamish have carefully considered the right balance for Hamish, for Magellan and most importantly for our clients as they navigate global markets. Hamish's appointment in this new role is another important step as Magellan moves forward as a focused global funds manager".
Douglass, who was formerly chairman and chief investment officer, announced he would be taking a leave of absence from the firm back in February.
