Goldman Henry lifts the game with tighter compliance and a boost to the boardroom.

Thursday, December 23rd 2010, 10:37AM

Goldman Henry Capital Management has appointed a new chairman, two new directors and announced a more stringent compliance regime as part of a planned restructuring.

Robert Knox, a chartered accountant and former managing partner of BDO Auckland, was appointed chairman and a director of  two of the Golman Henry funds - the US 50  and the GH Emerging Markets funds - on December 10.

Another of the new directors  of  both funds is Craig Simpson, who brings 20 years experience in the fund

management business, most recently with BNZ Partners as Business Analyst - 2015 Wealth and Private Bank programme.

The third new director for Goldman Henry is Auckland medical practitioner Robert Sim who brings a wealth of knowledge in the high-tech medical sector.

At the same time Goldman Henry has tightened compliance by appointing the Public Trust as a supervisor.

This move has ensured a compliance regime second to none, says Goldman Henry managing director, Brian Henry. The appointment of the Public Trust as a supervisor means no money can shift out of the custodian's accounts without  signoff from the Public Trust.  The custodian is US based Charles Schwab & Co. Inc.

"We can give absolute assurance to investors that their money is where we say it is and that it is doing what we say it is doing. We recognise that this is the level of assurance that investors are now looking for," says Brian Henry. "We have moved to absolute best practice as part of a long planned restructuring."
