The great-grandson of Alexander Henderson, who founded modern-day Henderson Global Investors in 1872, is also called Alex. He has recently been spending a lot of time in Hong Kong and North Asia generally. Expect to see more of him, as Henderson expands its Asian presence beyond its Singapore stronghold.

The London-based concern set up shop in Singapore in 1995 and has now amassed $3.3 billion in Pacific investments managed by 15 staff. Now casting about for growth opportunities, the markets of North Asia are obvious magnets. The firm already markets Luxembourg-listed CCAF funds in Hong Kong, and has a fixed-income mandate from Mass Transit Railway Corp, among others.
