Joanne Huckle, global head of Investment Funds at Ogier, adds: “We are absolutely delighted to welcome Kirsten to our growing Regulatory, Investigations and Enforcement team.
“She brings with her both experience and expertise that is valuable to the investment fund advice we provide to clients, as well as extensive knowledge of the financial services industry.”
