WHEB Asset Management has been acquired by Foresight Group Holdings.
Founded in 2009, WHEB is a specialist in impact investing focused on listed equities. In 2024, WHEB’s flagship listed equity impact fund was the first to secure a Sustainability Impact label under the FCA’s new Sustainability Disclosure Requirements.
All three of WHEB’s Partners will become employees at Foresight with the WHEB team continuing to manage WHEB’s investment strategies as part of Foresight Capital Management.
George Latham, Managing Partner at WHEB said, “Over the past decade WHEB has built a highly successful, award-winning franchise around a core global equity impact strategy. We have helped set the standard for impact investing in listed markets in the UK and abroad. As part of FCM and the wider Foresight group, we will be able to offer clients a broader suite of impact products across different asset classes with the backing of an institution with a strong balance-sheet and established distribution and risk management processes. We are very excited to have the support of Foresight in this next stage of WHEB’s development.”
Nick Scullion, Partner, Head of Foresight Capital Management said, “We are delighted to be joining forces with the team at WHEB Asset Management, which will more than double the assets under management of Foresight’s FCM division. WHEB has built an outstanding business with a strong mission and powerful brand that stands for authentic impact investing. Bringing WHEB’s products, people and culture onto the FCM platform positions our business as a leader in impact investing in public markets in the UK and in other key geographies.”
