Sharon Frances Bentley Hamlyn

Ms. Sharon F.
Hamlyn is an Investment Manager at Aubrey Capital Management Ltd.
She has over 38 years of industry experience.
Ms. Hamlyn was with Walter Scott & Partners from 1992 to 2006 and from 2001 as a main Board Director.
There she had a global remit following extensive research experience into the major markets of the world: the UK and Europe (including emerging Europe), the USA and Far East.
However, her multi-lingual abilities, particularly in French and Italian, led to a strong interest in European markets.
For almost a decade she held primary responsibility for the firm's European stock selection and also for the firm's regional European assignments, either fully discretionary or with client-specific parameters.
She helped develop the firm's institutional fund management business and also managed several publicly quoted SICAVs.
She started her financial career with Crédit Commercial de France as an Analyst in its Mergers & Acquisitions division, having originally trained as an opera singer in the 1980s.
Ms. Hamlyn is a graduate of Bristol University and earned her MBA from Edinburgh University.
