Wealth Club appoints investment strategist
Bristol-based investment service Wealth Club has appointed Susannah Streeter as its new chief investment strategist, strengthening its senior leadership team.
Susannah will lead Wealth Club’s investment commentary, providing insight into financial markets and explaining the economic and monetary trends shaping investor portfolios.
Her role will support investors across Venture Capital Trusts, EIS, single company investments, managed portfolios and private market funds.
She joins Wealth Club after five years at Hargreaves Lansdown, where she served as head of money and markets.
Prior to that, Susannah was a senior correspondent and financial news anchor at the BBC’s economics and business unit.
Based at Wealth Club’s head office in Bristol, Susannah will work closely with the investment research and marketing teams to expand the firm’s content and thought leadership.
She said: ‘’I am truly excited to join Wealth Club at such an important moment in its growth story.
“It’s at a time when there are many more compelling opportunities for experienced investors.
“They can more easily access areas of the market which have historically been reserved for institutions and big private equity players.
“Channelling long-term investment into start-ups and scale-ups provides vital funding for UK entrepreneurs and has the potential to help boost growth and revitalise the UK economy.”
Alex Davies, founder and chief executive of Wealth Club, added: “I’m delighted that Susannah is joining Wealth Club.
“I’ve long admired from afar the clarity and insight she brings when talking about financial markets and what is happening in the economy.
“She’ll continue doing what she does best, but she’ll also help more people understand the huge opportunities in private markets - whether that’s backing exciting start-ups or investing in larger established businesses through some of the world’s leading private equity funds.
“With Susannah’s profile and voice, these investments will reach a far wider audience and support our continuing aim to be the UK’s number one investment service exclusively for high net worth investors.”
