RWC Partners (RWC) has boosted its equities team with two new analysts, Benjamin Hall and Nathaniel Clark.

The pair have been appointed to its $2.2b billion Global Horizon strategy, which focuses on investing in global companies trading at a discount to their intrinsic value.

The Global Horizon team utilises a UCITS SICAV fund to create its portfolio of global companies. It has delivered a return of 41 percent over the past five years, well ahead of the sector average of 25 percent.

Mr Hall joins RWC from Mondrian Investment Partners, where he spent seven years working as an equity analyst and portfolio manager on the Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund. During his time at the asset manager, he gained experience working across a wide range of emerging markets, with a specific focus on India, Brazil and Mexico. Meanwhile, Mr Clark joined RWC in June from M&G Investments, where he performed the role of a global equity analyst since 2015.

They will both report to Louise Keeling, head of global equities, who believed that RWC would benefit greatly from the new appoints due to their expertise and the fact they shared the asset manager’s vision.

She said: “We are focused on pursuing an unconstrained and bottom-up investment approach that will help us deliver multi-year alpha to our clients. Benjamin and Nathanial share this belief and their insight and experience will be invaluable as we continue to uncover those under researched and unloved companies.”
