Bennett worked with Redington for almost 13 years, contributing significantly to the company’s development from a start-up to one of the top investment consulting businesses in the UK. As a senior consultant, Bennett provided advice to some of the largest and most sophisticated pension funds in the UK. He was also a board member, head of research, and chair of Redington’s investment strategy committee.

XTP director Stewart Bevan says: “David brings a wealth of financial services expertise and is a highly regarded industry professional. As UK pension schemes strive to enhance their investment governance and increase returns, David’s knowledge and experience will help steer us toward delivering maximum value for our clients. We are delighted to have David on board.”
Bennett: “I was extremely impressed with the rigor and depth of XTP’s process. Their data- driven approach delivers unique insights into the investment set-up, resulting in measurable efficiency gains for institutional asset owners. XTP have an excellent and highly experienced team and I am excited to be supporting them in executing their ambitious growth plans in the UK.”
