Savvides takes over £1bn smaller mandate from Whitmore as investors flee funds
Back in January this year, it was revealed that Ben Whitmore would be leaving Jupiter Asset Management after 18 years to set up his own value boutique firm.

A win-win situation: Manchester City claim partial win over Premier League on APT rules
Manchester City claimed a partial victory over the Premier League on Monday after an arbitration panel ruled on sponsorship deals, known as Associated Party Transactions (APT), that the Abu Dhabi-owned club was blocked from completing. The Premier League put its own spin on what some commentators saw as a landmark verdict, saying the panel's redacted 175-page document endorsed the overall objectives and decision-making of the APT system. The panel found parts of the league's APT rules broke British competition law, however, and were also unlawful because clubs were unable to comment on types of data the league would take into account.
