As a part of the company’s long term strategy and continuous efforts to grow internationally, IPM will, with this new hire also establish a local office in London.

The UK is a strategic market for IPM given the presence of major global investment consultants but also as IPM has recently gained traction there, winning a number of mandates. Tara will be based in London but she will also contribute to develop IPM’s presence in other European key markets.

After experiencing strong growth over the past two years, IPM has also hired Tommy Jansson to strengthen the investment strategy team based in the Stockholm office. Prior to joining IPM, Tommy was a senior analyst at EnTrustPermal Group in London and prior to that an analyst at Fauchier Partners. A few years ago IPM created a dedicated team of product specialists to enable a strong link between IPM’s research team and its investors. Tommy will bring additional expertise to this team thanks to his extensive experience in fund and market analysis.
