The Alternative Investment Management Association (AIMA) has announced its new AIMA Cayman Board, serving for the 2018-2020 term.
The board includes executives Tim Rossiter, Michael Richardson, Andrew Linford, Yolanda Banks-McCoy, and Allison Nolan.
Also on the board are deputy chairs, Ronan Guilfoyle and Alaina Danley, and chair Russell Burt.
According to AIMA, the association is bringing together the diverse perspectives of its membership in providing sound practices, relevant research, and educational and social events to the alternatives industry.
As part of the changes, Colin MacKay of Intertrust corporate services will join AIMA Cayman having recently joined its global council.
In his new role, MacKay will collaborate with the global industry’s leadership, contributing an offshore perspective to the discussions that have a direct impact on the jurisdiction.
Burt remarked: “I am looking forward to working with our new board members over the next two years, representing the interests of our membership from promoting educational programming to developing best practices within the industry.”
“Looking ahead, we hope to strengthen our presence locally and abroad in support of all efforts to ensure we continue to thrive as an industry and as a jurisdiction.”
“I am very grateful for all the efforts of all outgoing board members. Our industry has a great deal to contribute to the Cayman Islands on both the local and global stage, and our new Board stands ready to keep moving us forward.”
Deputy chair, Ronan Guilfoyle of Calderwood, said: “The funds industry continues to face many challenges and it has never been more critical for the industry to collaborate in the interest of all stakeholders. AIMA can play a valuable role in these discussions.”
Yolanda Banks-McCoy, Highwater social committee chair, commented: “Our business is all about relationships. We are excited to develop new and varied networking events that bring our membership together to share issues and strengthen relationships at both senior and more junior levels.”
