Ninety One
, the UK-headquartered investment firm, confirmed yesterday that the portfolio manager for the Global Gold strategy and a co-portfolio manager for its Global Natural Resources (GNR) strategy is moving to its Singapore office.

George Cheverley will make the move on 1 September, the firm said and keep his existing responsibilities. 

“Singapore is a significant hub for commodity trading and a place where most mining companies have large commercial offices, so George will be able to expand on the network he has established in London to include more physical players in Asia,” a statement from Ninety One said. “He will be geographically closer to the Australian mining companies in which the gold fund is invested - companies which are also important to GNR.”
