Colin Gellatly, Chartered Financial Analyst

I began my City career in 2005 as a graduate under the watchful eye of Chris Sexton, so joining the investment team at Heronsgate Capital has been an obvious and pleasingly neat return to my roots.

Prior to joining the partnership, I spent close to a decade at the investment arm of one of the UK’s largest financial advice networks, latterly as Deputy Chief Investment Officer and then Chief Investment Strategist. I focused on adding value to discretionary portfolios, developing and implementing the tactical asset allocation approach – an approach underpinned by wide-ranging economic and market research. Alongside this, I was heavily involved in fund manager selection and the evolution of the investment proposition.

I earned an MA(Hons) in economic history at the University of Edinburgh and followed up by qualifying as a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA).
