Ainslie joined Henderson Global Investors in 2002 and remains with the business today having gained extensive experience running commercial property mandates investing in the U.K. and European markets.   In 2016, Ainslie was recognised by City A.M., as one of the city’s 100 most influential women. She was short-listed for Investment Week’s “Fund Manager of the Year” in 2017, Janus Henderson U.K. Property PAIF received the Portfolio Adviser Platinum Award in January 2018.   I sat down with Ainslie to discuss a broad range of subjects which covered some of the following topics:

• How she got into real estate
• Impact investing
• Managing fund redemptions
• Professional relationships
• What makes a great deal
• Move to Net Zero in 2030
• ...oh and one last question - who are the People, what Property, and in which Place Ainslie would invest should she have £500m of equity at her disposal.
