‘I have a love-hate relationship with earnings season’: Stonehage Fleming’s head of equity funds Tom Jeffcoate on working with IR

One of Europe’s leading multi-family offices was born from the merger of Stonehage and Fleming Family & Partners

When Stonehage and Fleming Family & Partners merged in 2015, the resulting institution became one of Europe’s largest multi-family offices which today manages more than $175 bn on behalf of some of the world’s high net worth dynasties in 14 geographies.

Tom Jeffcoate, who serves as the fund’s head of equity funds today, joined Stonehage before the merger in 2009, working side-by-side with Gerrit Smit, global best ideas lead fund manager and today head of the company’s global equity offering. Now he oversees company research within the equity management team, with a special focus on in-depth, bottom-up research covering firms across all sectors, and he manages the company’s $4.3 bn Global Best Ideas strategy. Prior to Stonehage, Jeffcoate held positions at ZAN Partners, Sigma Capital and PwC.
