Mr J Rose

After twenty years within the Investment Banking industry, James has spent the past five years building and running his own regulated investment advice businesses, both in Hong Kong and, now, in the UK. Having spent most of his career advising Pension Funds on their equities asset allocation, James is now particularly enjoying helping start-up and early stage companies develop innovative financing models, at various points along their strategic pathway. James is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investment.

His interests include hill walking, particularly on the Welsh borders where he grew up; crime fiction in translation; and the counter-cyclical fortunes of Hereford Football Club and the Sydney Swans AFL teams. He has just resumed his cricket career after a twenty-eight year break, during which he has not improved.
