Tamsin Wilding has been appointed as a portfolio manager in Harbour Asset Management's fixed income team.
Wilding brings 15 years of experience in global markets across portfolio management, trading, and client-focused roles. She joins Harbour following a decade in Vancouver with Leith Wheeler Investment Counsel, an independent Canadian investment firm with approximately C$32 billion ($39 billion) in assets under management.
In her most recent role as principal, portfolio manager - fixed income, Wilding’s responsibilities spanned the full investment process, including economic forecasting, portfolio construction, trading, execution, and ongoing funds management.
Prior to this, she spent five years with the Bank of New Zealand in institutional fixed income sales and credit trading.
Harbour’s fixed income team has grown significantly in recent years, with fixed income funds under management increasing from $3.5 billion to $6.5 billion over the past 18 months. This growth has created an opportunity to expand the team’s portfolio management capability, ensuring strong coverage and positioning for the future.
Wilding joins a highly experienced group alongside Mark Brown (Head of fixed income), George Henderson (portfolio manager), Simon Pannett (senior credit analyst), Thomas Entwisle (investment analyst) and Jenny Yang (senior quantitative analyst).
This appointment follows the recent move of Hamish Pepper into the role of Head of multi-asset and global investments. Pepper had been a key member of the fixed income team for six years and now leads Harbour’s multi-asset business while continuing to provide macroeconomic research and advice across the wider investment team.
“Adding Tamsin to the team further strengthens our team as we continue to grow,” Brown says. “She brings deep experience, global perspective and strong investment credentials, which will benefit our clients and position us well for the years ahead.”
She will start in February 2026. With this appointment, Harbour continues to demonstrate its commitment to maintaining a well-resourced investment team, ensuring robust portfolio management, succession planning, and career development opportunities across the business.
