Future Capital Partners, the GBP6bn alternative investment boutique, has appointed Andrew Derrington to its business development team.
Derrington’s (pictured) role with FCP will primarily focus on building strong working relationships with both clients and intermediaries.
FCP’s investment opportunities are available to investors through financial institutions, wealth managers, IFAs and accountants, and Derrington will help to further develop FCP’s network of these intermediaries.
He will also play a significant role in business development and client liaison.
Derrington has over ten years’ experience within the investment arena, the last four of which has been spent within FCP’s specialist area of alternative investments which are structured to mitigate downside and enhance returns.
He joined FCP from Mercury Tax Group where he jointly ran the London office. At Mercury he was actively involved in business development and technical work. This involved building relationships with new introducers such as IFAs and accountants and advising on property transactions using offshore vehicles.
Prior to this, Derrington worked for Ingenious Media, where he was responsible for the promotion of structured investments (both personal and corporate) covering sectors such as film partnerships, venture capital trusts, enterprise investment schemes and inheritance and corporate tax solutions.
Tim Levy, chief executive at Future Capital Partners, says: “We are pleased to have someone of Andrew’s calibre joining our team. His experience in the structured investment world will play a major part in further strengthening our relationships with the IFAs and intermediaries who help to distribute our products. Future has enjoyed rapid growth in our clientele of late, and we hope that Andrew can help to continue that momentum.”
Future Capital Partners specialises in alternative investments such as renewable energy, international property, biotechnology and media and entertainment.
