Alternative asset manager Cheyne Capital has appointed Tom Wiggin as head of UK marketing. 

In this newly created position, Wiggin will be responsible for the marketing of Cheyne’s expanding range of products in the UK and will work alongside Max Nardulli who was recently appointed as head of international sales and distribution.
 
Wiggin joins Cheyne from Deutsche Bank in London where he was since 1998, most recently as managing director responsible for hedge fund relationships in Europe. Prior to this, he ran Deutsche Bank's convertible bond business.  

He has also managed the convertibles business at Flemings, and has also worked at Morgan Stanley and Barings.
 
Jonathan Lourie, co-founder and chief executive of Cheyne, says: “With two new high-profile appointments to support our broadening investor base, we are well-positioned to drive forward our growth. We are delighted to welcome Tom to Cheyne where his depth of experience will be a great asset to the team and to our clients.”
