Silvio Schembri) has appointed Heathcliff Farru- gia as the new Chief Executive Officer of the MGA with effect from 24 April 2018. Farrugia succeeds Joseph Cuschieri who earlier this month was appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA). He holds a Masters Degree in Business Administration (MBA) from the University of Leicester, UK, and is specialised in business management, operational efficiencies, strategic planning, and regulation. Throughout his professional career, he held various senior executive positions both within the private and the public sector. In 2014, Farrugia joined the Gaming Authority in the role of Chief Operations Officer (COO), and was pivotal in the transformation process which the Authority underwent. He held this position for two years until his appointment as Chief Regulatory Officer in 2016. In this role he was responsible for all the regulatory activities of the Authority with specific focus on Regulatory Supervision, Authorisations, Compliance and Player Support. At the same time, he was also a member of the Supervisory Council, and co-chaired the Fit & Proper Committee, entrusted with the assessment of the fit and properness of individuals and companies applying for an MGA licence. Farrugia was a board member of the Gaming Regulators European Forum (GREF), where he is now a member and is also a member of the International Association of Gaming Regulators (IAGR) and the International Association of Gaming Advisors (IAGA). Prior to joining the MGA, he spent the largest part of his career in the telecoms industry, specifically with Vodafone Malta, where he occupied various managerial positions. In 2013, Farrugia was appointed Customer Value Management (CVM) Manager for Vodafone Italy in Milan where he was responsible for the overall planning and strategy within the Consumer Department. At an exclusive customer event, HSBC Global Asset Manage- ment shared its global investment strategy for 2018 and provided an update on the changing global economy. The event held at GABA premises in Iklin featured keynote speeches by Stéphane Mesnard, the Fund Manager for HSBC Select Funds, and Wayne Spiteri, the Managing Director of HSBC Global Asset Management Malta. HSBC Malta's Head of Retail Banking and Wealth Management, Daniel Robinson said that the bank pride itself in offering customers high quality financial advice. "With the help of HSBC Global Asset Management Malta we are able to share knowledge and market insight that our clients value," he said. The HSBC Global Asset Management Malta is part of the HSBC Global Asset Management Group, one of the largest asset managers in the world. It specialises in investment products for retail and institutional clients and forms part of a group that manages over €400 billion in assets and is present in over 26 countries. Mesnard said there are a lot of different ways for clients to invest their assets, in more traditional options such as financial markets (bonds and equities) or in the non- traditional asset class such as real estate. "Having a mix of investments in different asset classes, if possible, is a good way to manage and increase one's wealth," she said. "HSBC's approach is to be present with clients over the long-term and invest their money according to a strong, rigorous and stable investment process." Spiteri said funds were highly diversified and the investment process follows a rigorous risk and governance framework aimed at giving the best service to all our customers. Over the past 20 years, the HSBC's Global Asset Management Malta has grown and is now entrusted with over €1 billion of assets. Customers are able to invest in locally-managed funds or group-managed funds, which include the HSBC Select range.
