Incredibly gifted, committed and sincere, Brad joined the nascent Mergence team in 2005 to work as part of our absolute return team. In fact, he has only ever worked at Mergence, having been snapped up straight after receiving his MSc in Financial Mathematics from UCT with distinction for his thesis on derivative pricing.

Prior to fulfilling the role of Joint Managing Director,
Brad ably headed, lead and mentored the listed investment team. In addition to managing all the equity mandates, he was also Portfolio Manager of the Mergence ESG Equity Fund. He has strong views on responsible investing and has conducted detailed research on carbon disclosure, the wage gap and proxy voting, among other topics. Many top journalists have come to appreciate his concise and insightful comment.
Brad is a financial whizz and probably wouldn’t deny being an IT nerd either. He has learnt to solve the equation “Financial returns + social returns = shared value”.
With three young children, Brad is deeply involved in family life. His family have for five years funded the accommodation and education expenses of two Rwandan refugees living in Cape Town.
