A second fund manager has stepped down from Aviva Investors’ £795m (€917m) UK Listed Equity Income fund.
James Balfour left the fund in autumn 2023, and it has now emerged that the fund’s other co-manager Christopher Murphy has also resigned, following a temporary leave of absence in October 2023.
Murphy announced his official resignation on LinkedIn this month. ‘After 18 years it’s time to recharge the batteries and move on,’ he posted. ‘So I’m off to do some skiing and then take on new challenges.’
