The British insurer has hired Ben Rudd from family office Caravel as its first Hong Kong chief investment officer, while two high-level investment staff have taken jobs elsewhere.
Bento just launched its part robo, part human advisory service for wealthy investors, and is already looking to expand into Hong Kong, the Middle East and Europe.
The platform, owned by Singapore-based Mesitis Capital, is building its team in readiness for launch in the next two months. The head of the business, Chandrima Das, outlines her strategy.
