WHIreland International Wealth’s head of investments David Bushe has been named as one of the top 100 leading fund selectors in a new list.

This is the seventh annual Top 100 guide to the leading industry individuals in private client investment management.

Citywire’s Wealth Manager is an online organisation for professional investment managers.

The island business is based at St George’s Tower, Hope Street, Douglas.

A director of WHIreland’s international business since it was established in 2013, Mr Bushe’s career has taken him from private banking through to portfolio management and institutional asset management working around the world in international financial services such as Jersey, South Africa and Barbados.

Mr Bushe said it was an honour to have been selected as one of the industry’s leading lights.

He said: ’I am delighted to have been named as one of Citywire’s Top 100 wealth managers and the announcement is a reflection of the approach that we take at WHIreland International Wealth.

’I and the local investment team are passionate about investments and love what we do and our focus has always been to match portfolio construction to our clients’ investment aspirations and attitude towards risk.’

WHIreland International Wealth managing director Will Corrin said: ’We are delighted that David has been recognised by the industry in this way and it demonstrates the calibre of the team that we have established here in the Isle of Man.

’This is a further endorsement of how quickly we have established ourselves as a respected provider of investment services on the island.

’As Citywire Wealth Manager acknowledged when announcing its Top 100, the industry is changing and nearly one third of the companies represented were featured for the first time, so it is vitally important that we continue to attract and retain the industry’s leading talent.’
