Craig Stanford is the new chief executive at Clairty Funds - part of the newly-minted Shaw and Partners group.

Stanford has an extensive background in asset management and business development across London, Sydney and New Zealand, including five years as Director – Asia Pacific Business Development for quantitative fund manager Capital Fund Management and nine years as the Head of Alternative Investments for Morningstar Investment Management.

Clarity executive director Andrew Kelleher says that Clarity has experienced significant growth recently as it expands the range of funds it offers investors and following the acquisition of fund marketer The Investment Store.

"An increasing number of quality offshore investment managers are seeking to partner with us in a fund hosting and/or distribution capacity."

"We’re delighted to have found a candidate of Craig’s calibre to lead Clarity Funds through the next phase of growth, and to further extend Clarity’s offerings for retail and wholesale investors in the local market.

"Clarity has recently established the Nanuk New World PIE along with a second PIE for Australian Fixed Income manager Daintree Capital, and through the Investment Store now markets a number of strategies from Australian-based fund managers to the local financial intermediary market. We look forward to a series of further announcements in 2026 of differentiated fund offerings for New Zealand investors”.
