The report cites unnamed sources familiar with the matter as revealing that Zhang Duan is expected to assume the role next month, taking over from Joanna Alpert.
Zhang, a Yale University graduate with a bachelor’s degree in economics, began his career at investment firm Cambridge Associates before joining Bridgewater in 2015, according to his LinkedIn profile.
As of the end of last year, Bridgewater managed $112.5bn in assets, while BCIM oversaw more than RMB40bn.
