Stephen Anthony Zimmerman (born April 1949)[1] was deputy chairman and co-head of Mercury Asset Management throughout the 1990s alongside Carol Galley.

Career

Zimmerman joined City of London investment bank S.G. Warburg & Co. in 1971, becoming a director of investment subsidiary, Mercury Asset Management in 1979 and deputy chairman from 1990.[2] Along with Galley, who joined the company at the same time, Zimmerman has been credited with driving the growth of Mercury Asset Management during the 1980s and 1990s.[3]

The author Philip Augar wrote of Mercury in the 1980s and 1990s: “Under the leadership of [Peter] Stormonth Darling and then the triumvirate of Hugh Stevenson, Carol Galley and Stephen Zimmerman, Mercury caught the rising tide of instructional investment in the UK quite brilliantly.”[4]

Following the sale of Mercury to Merrill Lynch in 1997, Zimmerman stayed on with Galley to lead the integration process as co-heads.[5] Just as they had joined in the same year and worked closely over the following 30 years, they left at the same time, announcing their departure in March 2001.[3] When reporting on Zimmerman and Galley’s decision to leave Merrill, the Wall Street Journal cited Zimmerman as saying that he ‘wouldn’t be surprised to end up sharing an office with [Galley] again’.[6] Writing at the same time, Daily Telegraph columnist, Neil Collins, predicted they’d set up a boutique investment firm together.[7]

In the 2003, Zimmerman did set up a boutique, but with other ex-Merrill colleagues, Michael Marks and Paul Roy (as opposed to Galley, who remained in retirement).[8] The new Venture was called NewSmith in a nod, Smith New Court, another City institution bought by Merrill Lynch in the 1990s and previously run by Marks and Roy. NewSmith did well during the financial crisis,[9] though asset under management declined during the following decade. In an echo of his departure from Merrill Lynch, Zimmerman retired at the same time as co-founder, Marks (NewSmith was acquired by Man Group less than a year later[10]).[11]

Other activities

Zimmerman has been active in supporting London-based Jewish charities. Of particular note, he was chairman of Jewish Care from 2006 to 2011,[12][13] and remains an honorary president.[14]
