Mr. van Voorst has 20 years of investment experience, and re-joins Robeco from Union Bancaire Privée (UBP) in Hong Kong where he was CIO Asian Equities. Prior to UBP, Mr. van Voorst spent 12 years at Robeco in several investment positions, including senior portfolio manager of Rolinco, a Robeco trend strategy, and Robeco Asian Stars Equities. Mr. van Voorst is a board member of a Hong Kong-based fintech startup offering regulated software services for independent financial advisors globally.
