Manager changes, May and June 2019

By Chip

Each month, dozens of funds report manager changes to the SEC. The vast majority of those are inconsequential: one MBA-yielding member of a 12-person management team is popped out and another is popped in. This month’s compendium covers manager changes at 122 funds. That’s a larger-than-normal report mostly because we shared only a compressed list in our June issue, which reflected the competing time demands that Chip faced as she prepared for Ireland.

This month sees few blockbuster moves, though several “A” tier managers are on the move. Kathleen Gaffney is departing several Eaton Vance funds. John Carlson, Fidelity’s lead EM debt guy, formalized word of his year-end retirement. And the Zacks funds are losing one of their two Zackses.
