After more than 26 years at Janus Henderson and 34 years in the industry, Marc Pinto is retiring from Janus Henderson Investors and the mutual fund industry, effective April 2, 2021.
As part of a robust succession planning effort for all their investment teams, the company is pleased to announce Jeremiah Buckley will assume primary portfolio management responsibilities for the Growth & Income strategy and the equity portion of the Balanced strategy, effective April 2, 2021.
“Both Marc and Jeremiah were instrumental in building the foundation of the successful effort that generated compelling risk-adjusted returns for our clients over many years. Given the lengthy transition period, Jeremiah’s 22 years of experience and their many years of partnership, we expect this to be a seamless evolution”. Ignacio de la Maza said in an emailed statement.
In connection with this transition, David Chung, Industrials Sector Lead and Research Analyst of the Centralized Research team, has been appointed Assistant Portfolio Manager on the Janus Henderson Balanced strategy and Janus Henderson Growth & Income strategy, effective June 30, 2020. The company stated that there are no changes to either the Fixed Income sleeve of the Balanced strategy or the Growth & Income strategy, nor to either strategy’s investment process or philosophy.
“I want to thank Marc for his many contributions to Janus Henderson and our clients over the past 26 years. He is an excellent investor and an exceptional leader. He and his team demonstrated their skill by delivering strong results for clients across several of our strategies over many years. Marc will continue working with the team through his retirement on April 2, 2021, which is a reflection of his professionalism and commitment to our clients.” Wrote de la Maza.
“I have the utmost confidence in the continuing investment team, whose investment process, philosophy and team approach remain unchanged. We are fortunate to possess significant professional depth and robust transition plans which are designed to respond to naturally occurring personnel changes without significant disruption to our clients or our business. This should result in an orderly transition for clients.” De la Maza concluded.
