Simon Edelsten to retire from Artemis

Replaced by Alex Stanic

Simon Edelsten is set to retire from his position at Artemis at the end of this year.

Edelsten, 61, has been manager of the Artemis Global Select fund since he began at Artemis in 2011, and co-manager of the Mid Wynd investment trust since 2014. Furthermore, Alex Illingworth, who co-manages the Mid Wynd trust and Artemis Global Select fund with Edelsten, will leave Artemis at the end of this month. Replacing him is Alex Stanic, who will be appointed to the newly created role of head of global equities from 1 March, though Edelsten will continue to manage the funds with Stanic to ensure a smooth handover.
