Gramercy Funds Management has appointed Jeffrey D Sharon, CFP, CIMA as Global Head of Business Development. Sharon will be responsible for the firm's marketing, distribution and investor relations efforts and will also serve as a member of Gramercy's Management Team.

Sharon brings 25 years of expertise in the asset management industry, as a business development professional and successful leader of institutional sales and client service teams.

"I'm thrilled to join Gramercy. With the firm's 21-year proven track record and unrivaled experience in managing complex emerging markets assets, we are able to offer a robust institutional business platform and a wealth of intellectual capital on the investment team, trading floor and throughout the firm," says Sharon.

"As Gramercy continues its evolution as a world-class global asset management firm, we must continue to invest in our people, processes and culture, as well as enhance our investment strategies," says Robert Koenigsberger, CIO and Founding Partner of Gramercy, adding, "We are thrilled to bring a proven business development leader like Jeff to Gramercy."

"Recently partnering with Mohamed El-Erian as a strategic advisor, strengthening our investment team in London, and now bringing in an institutional-caliber business development professional to lead and advance our amplification of Gramercy's unique specialisation in EM highlights our commitment to existing clients, consultants and to the broader market," Koenigsberger says.
