"With our long-term approach to investment having now taken GCP's listed funds under management to well over £1 billion, we are delighted to bolster the strength and depth of our team - and broaden our client service offering - through the recruitment of such an experienced adviser to the investment funds sector. Our client Boards and investors will benefit from Dion's considerable expertise through which he has advised funds on some of the largest and most innovative capital raises in recent years, including the IPOs of GCP Student Living and Project Finance Investments and secondary share issuance for GCP Infrastructure Investments."
