So why Jordan Grand Prix? "Firstly, we decided that Formula One was the right sport for us. It is exciting, high profile, has global reach and an audience of millions world-wide. In addition, research showed that 70 per cent of Independent Financial Advisers, through whom the majority of our funds are sold, are interested in Formula One. Also, we like to see ourselves as a different breed of investment manager; professional, committed and yet still having fun. Jordan was the obvious team that matched these values."
