Ian Jamieson, Founder and Executive Chairman, said, “Asia Pacific is a key strategic growth area for the firm, complementing our established presence in Europe and North America. Michael brings an exceptional track record, trusted relationships, and a unique understanding of the region’s cultural and financial landscape. Michael will work closely with Ian Thatcher to ensure we expand our team and deliver the same standards of service that Jamieson is renowned for.”
Ian Thatcher, Asia Pacific Chairman, remarked, “We are delighted to welcome Michael to Jamieson. He will be a catalyst in driving our expansion.
