About the Author
Paul Mumford is one of the longest-serving fund managers in the UK, with 50 years' experience in the markets as a stockbroker and fund manager. He runs the Cavendish Opportunities Fund, AIM Fund and Select Fund, having launched the first in 1988 as the Glenfriars Opportunities Fund. He is a stock picker who aims to find shares in undervalued companies and often ends up swimming against the tide and buying unloved shares. Paul has three daughters and two granddaughters. His outside interests include bridge - he has obtained the rank of Life Master - supporting live music at local venues, and following two football teams as a season ticket holder.
Reviews
"A fascinating life of kaleidoscopic colour and a wonderful anthropological study that confirms how those formative years shape the way we are as adults." --Colin Morrison, Investment Performance Consultant. "As his clients will attest, Paul Mumford is no ordinary investor and, as I know from trying to maintain a semblance of control chairing conferences, he is no ordinary speaker. So it should come as no surprise that, with this entertaining and insightful blend of personal and professional experience, he has produced no ordinary investment book." --Julian Marr, editor, Professional Adviser "Paul Mumford is a wise and engaging guide taking you through his five decades in the City: booms, bear markets, rogues, successes and fads are all here. So too is a rich store of ideas for those who are serious about successful long-term investing." --Mark Colegate, Asset TV "Paul Mumford's wealth of experience and accumulated knowledge as a stock picker over many years of turmoil is worth its weight in gold!" --David Buik MBE, Panmure Gordon & Co "A wonderfully eccentric and engaging insight into the mind of an extremely accomplished investor." --MoneyWeek "It's an honest and enjoyable read." --Jeremy Prescott, freelance journalist The Stock Picker is an engaging read for those interested in the investment industry and wider world nostalgia. --Richard Penny, manager of the L&G UK Special Situations Trust and L&G UK Alpha Trust
