Kames Capital, the fixed income specialist fund manager, is to split its sales team ahead of the UK’s departure from the European Union next year — which it said will mean it can carry on business regardless of whether the UK leaves the bloc in March 2019 with a deal.

As part of the overhaul, which will see the creation of several new roles, the £42.5bn asset manager will establish two separate sales teams — one to cover clients in the UK while the other will focus on global financial institutions and international sales.
