Dolbear and Paul Wesson, head of portfolio risk and managed funds at F&C, left F&C to set up Parkstone Asset Management in 2009. The duo will use a qualitative and quantitative model to review allocations based on earnings, valuations, price to earnings ratios, volatility and inflation expectations.
