INDOS Financial has appointed Seymour Banks as head of environmental, social and governance (ESG), where he will assume responsibility for developing ESG screening and verification services to clients.
Banks has more than two decades’ experience in investment management, specialising in alternative assets.
Banks previously served as CEO of fund business, Hilltop, and has also served as managing director of Signet Capital.
Commenting on his new appointment, Banks said: “Responsible investing has a long and varied history, but interest in how investment managers integrate ESG factors into their thinking has accelerated dramatically over the last couple of years.”
He added: “This is a great opportunity to extend INDOS’s reputation for independent assurance, as a depositary for alternative investment funds, to the ESG space where the lack of transparency is a big issue.”
