“At First Sentier Investors, we see an opportunity to further align our people programs with our vision, purpose and growth ambitions.

Her strong financial services experience, coupled with her commercial experience at Eight Roads and Colt means Ms Halsey is well placed to contribute to our growth strategy.”
