Much has been made of the exodus from Ignis Asset Management since Standard Life Investments acquired the business a year ago. But as well as the high-profile departures, many staff, including senior people, seem to have stuck with the firm.

Of 70 senior Ignis employees identified by Financial News, 25 have found jobs elsewhere, including nine who joined Old Mutual Global Investors. The fate of another 17 is not known. Many are likely to have left SLI and are in the final stages of gardening leave, weighing up their next move or proceeding towards retirement. But 28 - 40% - have found places at SLI.
