Stonegate Capital Names Peter Warnes as Chief Investment Officer

Warnes joins the firm following a career spanning major financial hubs including London, Hong Kong, and Kuala Lumpur. His background features senior leadership roles at JP Morgan Asset Management, Manulife Investment Management, and BOS Wealth Management Malaysia, where he served as both CIO and interim CEO. His appointment marks a significant step in Stonegate’s push to formalize its investment architecture.

Stonegate plans to grow its team to 11 staff members by year-end. The firm is positioning itself as an AI-integrated family office, intending to embed data automation into its core functions—ranging from due diligence and portfolio monitoring to reporting. Executives maintain that this technological shift will operate alongside human oversight and governance frameworks to guide the firm’s future asset management approach.
