MARTIN Gilbert, the chief executive of Aberdeen Asset Management, has taken advantage of the recent boost to the company's share price, selling 750,000 shares, gaining the company's founder some £970,000.
AAM shares surged in the days following the news that it bought the asset management business of Credit Suisse, which led to a string of City upgrades.
After the sale, Gilbert still holds 7,869,971 shares in AAM, worth some £9.7 million based on yesterday's closing price.
