BT Investment Management agreed to buy at 100% stake in J O Hambro
Capital Management (JOHCM), an investment business of J O Hambro

The sell-off comes as a
result of the firm’s strategy to strengthen its relationships with
investment professionals including fund managers. In turn, JOHCM
will retain a 9.9% stake in J&HP.

The management team at
JH&P remains unchanged with Jamie Hambro as chairman and Andy
Steel as chief executive.

The transaction is
subject of regulatory approval with the deal likely to close in the
