Regnan

What Regnan does

Regnan is a Sydney-based advisory firm founded in 2007 that provides advice and insights on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues to investors and financial market participants. With a headcount of 11–50 employees, it operates as part of the Perpetual Group ecosystem, which also encompasses J O Hambro Capital Management (JOHCM), a global investment management platform offering equity-focused funds across emerging markets and international markets. Regnan's primary functional activity centers on ESG advisory and insights production rather than direct discretionary asset management.

The firm's go-to-market is sales-led, targeting three horizontal investor segments — Individual Investors (primary), Institutional Investors, and Financial Intermediaries — and it leverages the distribution infrastructure of the broader Perpetual/JOHCM network, including a mutual fund platform with self-service login access and field sales coverage across the UK, EU, and USA. The related regulated entities are JOHCML (UK, FCA), Perpetual Investment Services Europe Limited (Ireland, Central Bank of Ireland), and JOHCM (USA) Inc., collectively operating from registered offices in London, Dublin, and Boston. Marketing channels span articles, podcasts, videos, and a media centre covering Sustainability, Emerging Markets Equities, International Equities, and Portfolio Manager Insights.

The business model for the broader ecosystem generates revenue through investment management fees charged on assets under management, with mutual fund distribution as the primary recurring revenue mechanism. Regnan's own ESG advisory revenue mechanics, pricing structures, and minimums are not publicly disclosed. Recent signals include the appointment of Bill Street as CEO of J O Hambro Capital Management in September 2025, described by the firm as an investment in growth.
