He joined us as our COO earlier this year and has been an excellent appointment and we have already started to see the benefits of his deep knowledge and experience of the fund administration sector in which we operate. We believe that Robin is extremely well placed to support AMIF in its next phase of growth and we look forward to his continued insight and counsel.
"The Board also joins me in thanking Kiran for his considerable input since the Group joined the London Stock Exchange in June 2023.
