Simon Pickard

Simon Pickard has become a passionate private impact investor after a career focused on equity fund management with a number of large international financial institutions including Carmignac in Paris and MAN Group and Jupiter in London. He acts as a consultant and Chair of the Impact Investment Committee for UBP in Geneva, and combines this with managing his own impact portfolio and on supporting other impact investors, including members of the global community Toniic. As the father of two teenage girls and as someone who has certainly benefited from the ‘maleness’ of traditional finance during his career, Simon is determined to be part of the gender solution not the problem.
