Credit Suisse has created an investment strategies and solutions group in its asset management division, which will help clients develop investment solutions from across their full range of product offerings.
David Russ (pictured), former chief investment officer of Dartmouth College’s Office of Investments, has been named managing director and chief investment strategist of the group.
Mark Bourgeois, managing director and head of distribution for asset management, says: ‘The formation of the investment strategies and solutions group is the next step in providing clients with a coordinated, efficient and strategic approach to investing in a range of products across the spectrum of asset classes and investment styles. Asset management clients will benefit from David’s deep expertise in portfolio construction and management, as well as his significant knowledge of endowment, foundation and pension plan management.’
Russ says: ‘I am proud to be joining Credit Suisse as it expands its superior client service offerings through the formation of the Investment Strategies and Solutions group. This is an exciting opportunity to bring my experience as an endowment and pension plan investor with several of the world’s leading academic institutions to one of the world’s leading financials institutions. I look forward to working with the team to develop and provide Credit Suisse’s asset management clients with unique solutions to accomplish their varied investment objectives.’
