Publisher and CEO
Sarah Barham co-founded ISI Publications in 1991 in
Hong Kong and has since overseen the development of
offices in the UK, Bermuda and Toronto. Under
Sarah’s guidance, during the last 17 years the

production service for several blue-chip clients
outsourcing their publications or marketing.
Sarah’s role at ISI Publications is to initiate
projects on a conceptual level, and commission the
author and sponsor group where necessary. Sarah has
also initiated, launched and developed several
significant imprints, including the Capital Guides,
the Practitioners Guides (on the regulation of
various stock exchanges), and the Starting a Hedge
Fund series, which covers Asia, Europe, the US and
Canada.
In addition, Sarah initiated and launched ISI
Seminars and Publications and

its global reach and reputation by hosting unique
hedge fund events that provide sponsors, managers
and service providers with a real return on their
marketing spend.
Sarah is also the
co-owner and founder of Toronto’s first Hedge Fund
Hotel. The Hedge Fund Hotel is tailored to meet the
specific needs of new hedge funds, to provide an
information hub for the Canadian hedge fund
community, and for investors and service providers
with a vested interest in the alternative sector in
Canada. |
