Stonehage Fleming, a multi-family office, has appointed Bev Stewart as the head of family office in Jersey, replacing Richard Stride.
Stewart reports to British Islands family office head Greg Harris.
Besides, Stewart will remain an adviser to affluent international families, addressing their succession planning, governance, and complex wealth issues.
She has been working at Stonehage Fleming since 2021, bringing over 20 years of experience in investment banking and private wealth management.
Meanwhile, Stride will transition to the role of trustee and key adviser for many high-net-worth international clients of the firm.
Stewart said: “At Stonehage Fleming we pride ourselves on the wide range of services we able to provide for some of the world’s leading families and wealth creators, and I look forward to continuing Richard’s good work and offering top-tier family office and fiduciary services to our clients.”
Prior to her tenure at Stonehage Fleming, Stewart held the position of director in the investment banking division of South African financial services provider Absa.
Stonehage Fleming Jersey chairman Ian Crosby said: “We look forward to Bev’s continued work in her new role as head of family office Jersey, and thank Richard for his years of dedication and commitment. Both are extremely valued members of Stonehage Fleming’s Jersey office.”
Moreover, Stonehage Fleming appointed Andrea Sturges as an associate director within the family office team.
Sturges has 20 years of experience in the fiduciary sector, with a focus on the Middle East.
In January this year, Stonehage Fleming hired Stuart Parkinson from Lombard International Group as its group CEO.
