Voss joined the trade group’s board of directors in 2007, was named vice chair in 2011, and has been chairman since June 2015.

Her new mandate, voted during Alfi’s annual general meeting on Tuesday, will run to June 2019.

“The impact of Brexit on the fund industry” and “the role of the management company” are among the association’s priorities for the coming two years, Alfi said in an announcement on 20 June.

Voss stated in the press release:

“It’s vital that Alfi continues to explain the delegation model that the Luxembourg fund industry has operated over the last 30 years since the introduction of Ucits. The delegation model continues to be tried and tested in many industries throughout the world and in the case of Ucits brings the expertise of portfolio managers from around the world to investors in over 70 countries”.

Voss has worked in Luxembourg’s financial sector since 1990 and is currently a conducting officer at Franklin Templeton Investments.
