GUY FRASER-SAMPSON has twenty years' experience of the investment industry across a range of asset classes, most notably private equity. His career has included a spell as Investment Controller with the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, and setting up and running for several years the European operations of one of the world's leading fund of funds managers.
Guy is a well-known figure on the conference circuit, both as a speaker and as a panellist. His first major speech on MAC investing (to the UK's National Association of Pension Funds in 2005) sparked media attention around the globe and helped to establish MAC investing as one of the current hot topics of the investment world. He is the inventor of the Total Funding Model, by which pension funds can calculate their target rate of investment return, and previously developed a model for analysing the performance of buyout managers.
Guy Fraser-Sampson has an LLB with Honours from King's College London and an MBA majoring in finance from Warwick Business School. Originally a practising lawyer, he was made an equity partner in a City of London law firm at the age of 26, having been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts a year earlier. Guy has contributed many articles over the years to investment and pension publications, but this is his first book.
