Payden Enters into a Distribution Alliance

Reported by Nicole Spector

Looking to break ground in the broker-dealer channel, Los Angeles-based Payden & Rygel has hired Illinois asset manager Destra Capital Investments to provide support for Payden in this space.

According to a statement, the $80B asset manager said that "this alliance gives Payden & Rygel the ability to actively market its investment strategies to a segment of the retail market where they have not previously focused."

Based in Lisle, Ill., Destra Capital was founded by Dominic Martellaro, who previously ran intermediary distribution for Janus. Destra offers sub-advised mutual funds.

“As Payden looked to provide more resources in the retail market we searched for a firm that would complement our already successful independent advisor focused relationship team. Independent advisors have always been and will continue to be, an important focus for our firm,” stated David Hilton, Senior Vice President at Payden & Rygel. “Approximately a third of the total assets, in our funds, are from independent advisors. Destra Capital gives us the ability to service and support the broker-dealer community. With this new relationship, we round out our ability to work with all channels in the retail marketplace.”

Here is the press release:
