Bronwen is the highly respected leader of Zenith's Research team. Bronwen walks us through her upbringing and how she made her way into investment research, via being selected in the ballot to work in the USA. Bronwen talks to us about the research process, balancing the short and long term, common investment manager mistakes and how manager research has changed over time. One such change surrounds how a manager's ESG credentials are assessed - advisors and end clients are demanding more information and Zenith is providing it. Bronwen also speaks about how to keep an entrepreneurial focus, her passion for Guide Dogs and "Pawgust", The Sisters of Resistance and being ahead of her time in achieving work/life balance.
