Appointment of Independent Consultant

 

SEQI, the specialist investor in economic infrastructure debt, announces the appointment of Andrea Finegan as an Independent Consultant to the Company.

 

Andrea succeeds Mr. Tim Drayson, following his appointment to the Board earlier this year, and will work alongside Kate Thurman to provide guidance to the Board on the overall approach to risk management across the Company's portfolio. The two Independent Consultants will continue to focus on evaluating and supporting the Company's selection of new investments, monitoring and providing input on the strategy for focus credits, and working closely with Sequoia Investment Management Company, the Investment Adviser, and Sanne Fund Management (Guernsey) Limited, the Investment Manager.

 

Andrea has a strong background in infrastructure finance, including over 20 years spent in the management of infrastructure funds. She is currently independent chair of the Greencoat Capital Valuation Committee, having previously served as COO of Greencoat and was responsible for overseeing the establishment of listed and unlisted investment fund products. Prior to Greencoat, Andrea was responsible for similar management functions at Climate Change Capital and ING Infrastructure Funds.

 

Robert Jennings, Chairman, said:

 

"Andrea's appointment marks another key milestone in the development of our Independent Consultants and demonstrates our ability to recruit candidates of an exceptionally high-calibre to provide their input to our most critical business functions. The recent appointment of Tim Drayson to the Board provided continuity and strength to our Board based on knowledge and experience gained during his four years as a Consultant, and we are delighted to retain Kate Thurman in her role to work alongside Andrea."
