Experience
In her current role, Maria works closely with the Portfolio Management Research (PRM) group, the Trading Technology and Capital Markets groups, and Legal & Compliance, to design and customize portfolio strategies and implementations to the unique needs of each client. She is responsible for ensuring an accurate and efficient execution of her funds’ strategies in the market and engages clients in ongoing dialogue regarding the funds’ positioning, attribution of results, and strategy planning. Through thoughtful and effective communication, Maria strives to provide highly transparent, efficient, and reliable services.
Maria also has several years of experience leading model validation efforts for the PRM. This work involves detailed replication of model calculations and auditing of system data flows from end to end, which she credits for her deep knowledge and understanding of our investment strategies. Her earlier work with the PRM focused on increasing the efficiency of repeated tasks through automation and facilitating validation of results.
