In the meantime, the news organisation also reports that Tim Peterson, who founded the $7bin Regiment Capital Advisors LLC in 1999 after a decade at Harvard University’s endowment, plans to step down from day-to-day management of the hedge fund in mid-2014.
Peterson, 51, will take on a mentoring role at the firm after he stops managing money, said Diana Pisciotta, a spokeswoman for the Boston-based credit fund. Regiment partners Mark Brostowski and Bill Heffron will continue to run the portfolios, while Thomas Sorbo and Chris Kaster will head the non-investment parts of the business.
Finally, Bloomberg reports that Harvard Management Co., which oversees the endowment of the world’s richest university with $30.7bn, has hired Sanjiv Bhatia and three other portfolio managers as it expands it stock markets team.
Bhatia, who once headed the Asia office of Minnetonka, Minnesota-based hedge fund Deephaven Capital Management LLC, started this month as portfolio manager for emerging markets stocks, Harvard Management said today. The endowment also hired Al-Wadhah Al-Adawi, formerly at GLG Partners Inc., Amit Tiwari, who used to work at the Lakshmi Mittal family office, and Srdjan Tanjga, most recently at 40 North Industries LLC.
