Mr Snelgrove has 14 years of finance experience, including 12 years in global listed infrastructure funds as an analyst, portfolio manager and head of trading. Prior to joining 4D, he founded and ran a long short global listed infrastructure hedge fund at Coaster Capital that focused on additional sources of return in the sector and greater risk management tools in the investment process.
Before this, Mr Snelgrove spent more than a decade at RARE Infrastructure (now ClearBridge Investments). He was involved in the early development of the business, worked as an analyst covering Australian infrastructure stocks and led the global trading desk from Sydney and London – responsible for enhancing best practices across regulatory developments, market microstructure, technology and portfolio market intelligence. He was a contributor across investment committees and the macro advisory board and also managed a derivative overlay product for income strategies for several years.
Prior to his experience in global listed infrastructure funds, he worked at Merrill Lynch as an analyst on the hedge fund sales desk.
Ms Shaw said Mr Snelgrove’s wealth of experience in listed infrastructure and general market intelligence made him well suited to the 4D investment team.
“Heading into 2023, we continue to see the growing need for infrastructure assets globally and exciting investment themes across the asset class.
“Tim’s appointment comes as we look to increase the depth and strength of our investment team as 4D moves forward in its next stage of development.
“He brings a complementary skill set to the team with his strong background in dealing and asset allocation, and will be a valuable asset to 4D. I look forward to working with Tim again,” said Ms Shaw.
Mr Snelgrove has a Bachelor of Commerce (Liberal Studies) majoring in Accounting, Finance and Government & International Relations from the University of Sydney and holds a Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst (CAIA) designation.
