the firm.
In his new role, Zeitoun will be responsible for institutional
product innovation, and developing a wirehouse/platform distribution
strategy.
“We’re pleased to have Marc on board and to add his expertise to the
Security Global Investors team,” said Rich Goldman, president of Security
Global Investors. “Marc’s experience and his focus on innovation will play
a major role in our ongoing efforts to meet the dynamically changing needs
of institutions, intermediaries and high net worth individuals.”
Security Global Investors manages roughly $11 billion in assets and
provides retirement programs, insurance companies and other institutional
investors with a diverse array of growth and value equity strategies,
specialty fixed income strategies and global long-only and global
long-short strategies.
“This is an exciting time to be joining Security Global Investors,”
said Zeitoun. “This firm is singularly committed to becoming a premier
asset manager within the retail and institutional markets. Given its track
record of innovation, its well developed asset management competencies in
global equity and fixed income management, and its willingness to invest in
new areas, there is a clear path for success for the firm.”
Zeitoun will be based out of the firm’s New York office.
