Shaw and Partners appoints Investment Director

Shaw and Partners is thrilled to announce the appointment of Brian Kearney as Investment Director. The move signals a significant strengthening of the firm's implemented consultancy capabilities and Outsourced Chief Investment Officer (OCIO) services.

Brian brings nearly 20 years of distinguished experience in multi-asset strategy and institutional advisory services across global markets. Most recently serving as Head of Investment Solutions at Mercer since 2018, Brian has built an impressive track record delivering sophisticated investment solutions to institutional clients.

In his new role, Brian will work alongside Shaw and Partners veterans Alan Lee and Andrew Kelleher on the firm's implemented consultancy business, expanding Shaw and Partners' OCIO service offering to meet growing demand from New Zealand institutions and family offices seeking professional oversight of their investment portfolios.

"I'm thrilled to be joining a team with this depth of experience and an unwavering client focus," said Brian Kearney. "Through the Shaw and Partners and EFG networks, we're uniquely positioned to provide New Zealand investors with access to high-quality products and services that simply wouldn't otherwise be available in this market. This includes exposure to private markets, alternative investments, and institutional-grade solutions that can enhance portfolio outcomes for our clients."

We look forward to working with Brian as he embarks on this next chapter with Shaw and Partners.
