Sophia Whitbread, the only female portfolio manager at Odey Asset Management, has resurfaced at fund group Ninety One following the collapse of Crispin Odey’s hedge fund.

Whitbread joined Odey’s eponymous business in June 2021 from Newton Investment Management to help launch Brook Asset Management.
