General Insurance Article - Xafinity Punter Southall appoint new Head of Investment


Xafinity Punter Southall, the largest pure pensions consultancy in the UK specialising in pensions actuarial, investment and administration services, announces the appointment of Patrick McCoy as Head of Investment.

 Patrick will lead the combined Xafinity and Punter Southall investment teams and reports directly to Paul Cuff, co-CEO. He will also sit on ExCo driving and implementing the firm’s strategy. He spent over 10 years at AON before moving to KPMG as Partner and Head of Investment Advisory where he built their investment team from 2 to 80 people.

 Paul Cuff, co-CEO, Xafinity Punter Southall comments: “We are really pleased to have Patrick join us to lead the combined investment teams. It is an exciting time for us following the acquisition of the actuarial and investment consulting and pensions’ administration businesses from Punter Southall Group, and also for the sector. Patrick’s arrival provides an ideal opportunity to take advantage of the pending market disruption which will be caused by the current CMA review.”

 Patrick McCoy, Head of Investment, Xafinity Punter Southall said: “I am delighted to have joined Xafinity Punter Southall and be leading the combined investment team. With trustees wanting to retain control of decision making and wanting more innovative client-focused advice, we are in an ideal position to help. They also want efficient and timely implementation, something the investment consulting industry has not always delivered. The people within the firm are easy to get on with and also have a depth of intellectual curiosity, wrapped by efficient processes and a get-it-done attitude.”
