A class of moneymen who once only managed funds for buccaneering, rich families now count the world's largest public pension funds and endowments as clients.
Like his famous grandfather (to whom he bears some resemblance) he is an extroverted, mucking-in, buccaneering sort of toff, rather than the condescending and insipid kind.
He also became a heavy drinker, particularly fond of the local rum which he enjoyed, while swapping old war stories with other former privateers and buccaneers.
