Peter O’Donnell FCSI

Peter’s career started 37 years ago before the industry-changing ‘Big Bang’ and the financial crisis of 1987. He has worked for a number of globally leading firms starting with Hoare Govett, HSBC James Capel for 16 years, Brewin Dolphin as an Investment Director and most recently Tilney, now Evelyn Partners. His latest move has seen him take a consulting role with Raymond James, London CityPoint having stepped down from day to day investment management and relinquishing his authorisations.

Throughout his career, he has been involved with the management of private client money as well as Corporates, Trusts, Pensions and Charities. He prides himself in always thinking of clients first, which is increasingly relevant in the current climate.

The experience Peter has gathered over his career has never been more useful in putting into perspective the current market turmoil for some of the younger generation who have only seen the past decade as an almost straight line upwards. This perspective helps to protect client assets in times of genuine market stress. In his new role at Raymond James, London CityPoint Peter will be working alongside Investment Managers with whom he has worked with for over 20 years.

Peter is a Chartered Fellow of the CISI. He lives in Welwyn Garden City with his wife and 2 children. He is an avid football fan and regular attendee at Arsenal so is well experienced of the highs and lows that comes with long term ‘ownership’.
