"Our independence is fundamental to the quality and integrity of the service
we offer." Michael Kerr-Dineen, Chief Executive

Cheviot Asset Management was launched in May 2006, following the recruitment of 92 investment professionals and support staff from UBS.

Michael Kerr-Dineen, industry veteran and former chief executive of UBS Laing & Cruickshank, was appointed chief executive; and Sir George Mathewson, formerly chairman of Royal Bank of Scotland was appointed chairman.

Cheviot has continued to recruit high profile professionals from other organisations, and now manages and advises on over £3bn of client assets.*
