Innovator, builder and strategic partner in Quantitative Investing, Portfolio Construction and Risk Management.
Ken is a Senior Quant Research and Risk leader with 20+ years of experience driving and leading change in the financial industry. He brought Quant Research to a fundamental investor, creating insights into the portfolio, the markets, and trader behavior.
Ken built a proprietary analytical infrastructure that scaled up in scope and capacity without increasing headcount, providing key cost and competitive advantages and driving the Firm's investment, risk and portfolio management and communication with investors and regulators.
In creating a Risk Management department at a global asset manager, Ken redefined the focus of Risk Manager from defensive measurement and reporting to a partner of decision- makers in formulating strategy and portfolio construction. He revolutionized the Firm's investment and risk processes by transforming rudimentary, labor-intensive tasks to dynamic, cutting-edge sources of insight. As founding Chief Risk Officer, he led the Firm through a five-fold increase in AUM and headcount, the transition from private to public company, and managed major and minor financial/business crises and the introduction of new strategies and products.
