| Wellington: Kieran Swanson was yesterday voted "The Baddest Investment Portfolio Manager Out There" by a jury of his peers at this year's Annual New Zealand Investment Manager Awards last night.
Swanson who works for Citibank has consistently outperformed on the major indexes for the last 3 years and even predicted the recent Asian crisis was regarded by many in the industry as the favourite to take out this prestigious award. "There's a lot of pretenders out there, especially some of those guys in the Emerging Asia Equity Markets," Swanson announced while accepting the award. "Those guys have no balls at all. I tell you, if one of those guys tried to take me on, I'd take the guy down. I pity the crazy fool that tries it, He'd be pushing the tea trolley by lunch time." Other winners for the evening included ABN Amro who won the Baddest Mother Merchant Bank of the year award for the second year running, and AMP who won the Hardest Arse Investment Bank for the year 2000. |
