Sterling Asset Management 20th Anniversary 2001-2021

Pamela spent 19 years at Sterl ing Asset Management and retired in 2020. During Sterling’s infancy, she helped to set a standard of impeccable service, sound advice and unquestionable integrity. Pamela’s creative and out of the box ideas also helped to create novel marketing strategies for the company during it’s infancy and as it grew larger. “Pamela always put her clients first and took both the research and service components of her role very seriously. She was always coming up with new trading and investment ideas and also new marketing ideas. She really had a knack for both sides of the business” - Marian Ross, VP Trading & Investments. The common consensus among Pam’s clients was that she “provided top-tier, 'Sterling' service every single time”. Pamela Lewis will never forget the ties she built with her clients throughout her investment career. She is making new memories this year, as a newbie retiree, by being able to relax and not be excessively occupied by day-to- day responsibilities. Pam shares “I amhonoured to have been a part of the process.” Fortunately, clients then and now are shielded from devaluation as the company tends to lean toward international market investments. “I’m sure a lot of them look back now and are happy they decided to invest with Sterling,” says Pamela. It rings true for her as well, especially in our currently unpredictable economic climate. Widely recognised as the backbone of Sterling among her teammates, Judith celebrates 20 years as part of the company. “Judy has been an integral part of Sterling’s success and growth. We have been lucky to have her by our side in this journey. Judith has a rare ability to be extremely good at all sides of the business – client relationships, leadership and operations. She is an invaluable part of the team” according to Charles Ross, President & CEO of Sterling. Judy remembers: “When we started, not many institutions were selling bonds, far less international bonds. We had to do a lot of work educating people but I think this built trust and a good foundation for a long- term relationship – many of our early clients are still here today” When asked about the challenges along the way, she recounted the difficulties of the ponzi scheme era where many clients encashed their investments at Sterling – and also surviving the global financial crisis of 2008. While work fromhome is currently in fashion, Judy has been working remotely for over 10 years and has been delivering exceptional service and value from a physical distance. After 20 years, she cites Sterling’s culture as one of the main reasons she is still happy to remain an active member. Damian Harris is a living example of hard work and tenacity.
