TORONTO, May 31 /CNW/ - Creststreet is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Kevin Wood as Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing.
Kevin joins Creststreet's senior management team after a highly successful career with another mutual fund management firm where he was an integral member of a management team that oversaw the growth of assets under management to more than $4.5 billion over a ten year period. Kevin brings to Creststreet proven success in building a high quality investment management business.
Creststreet recently announced its plans to expand on its success as an energy investment manager by broadening its investment expertise to all commodities and by reaching out to a wider investor base by offering a more conservative income-focused investment fund.
As part of this strategy Creststreet recently announced it has attracted an award winning investment team comprised of Mr. William (Bill) Shaw and Mr. Paul MacDonald. Bill has won a Canadian Investment Award for Canadian Dividend Fund of the Year and Paul was previously involved with managing an award wining natural resources equity fund which was the top performing natural resource fund in Canada for the year-ended December 31, 2009.
Commenting on the expanded strategy and new additions to the team, Robert J. Toole, President and CEO of Creststreet said "Attracting a proven sales and marketing executive of Kevin's caliber is a perfect complement to our plans to expand our investment focus. With the recent addition of two award winning portfolio managers, we are all excited by recent changes at Creststreet and the new opportunities these changes create for our clients. I am pleased to welcome Kevin as a partner in the firm".
