PEOPLE                                      "commitment with sense of humour is a requirement"


EC Hambro Rabben & Partners has four full-time Directors and one non-executive Director, who are also the sole shareholders of the company. We do not pay regular salaries or fringe benefits, have no secretaries and have outsourced our support functions.  All Directors have been actively involved with shipping and offshore corporate finance over the past 20 years, with a track record totaling more than USD9billion in enterprise value.

Eivind Rabben, John Cook, Richard Trythall and Erik Mathiesen transferred from Hambros Bank while Peter Donald joined at the date of our establishment, having previously been Head of NatWest Equity Capital Markets. Petter Hagland joined us following his Cambridge degree in 2004 and Kristine Tveteraas became part of the team in 2006.  Anna Margaret Smedvig joined as a trainee in 2009.

Clare E Hambro, who also spent several years with Hambros Bank and subsequently the Take-Over Panel, is a non-Executive Director. She is a direct descendant of C.J. Hambro,the Danish founder of Hambros Bank, and her late father Lord Hambro was the final family Chairman of Hambros PLC prior to its sale in 1998.

Having fun is a requirement of all who work here (no point being miserable at work!) and,..importantly.., we all share in the overall success of our company.
