Redington’s Dawid Konotey-Ahulu: ‘People took a chance on me when I wasn’t the obvious choice’

'I know what it’s like to stumble, almost get fired, and have someone make it their personal responsibility to make sure you are a success'

‘In the past I have talked about ‘kinks in the hosepipe’. If you are from a minority there are kinks in the hosepipe of life where the water just stops’

Dawid Konotey-Ahulu co-founded investment consultancy Redington in 2006, having left Merrill Lynch where he was part of a team that implemented the first full LDI derivatives transaction for a UK defined benefit pension scheme.

He went on to co-found 10,000 Black Interns, and recently won the Outstanding Contribution Award at Financial News's Excellence in Fund Management Awards.
