In his new role, Scott will be responsible for the efficacy of SEI’s investment solutions in meeting DC clients’ goals, and implementing strategies for innovation and new business development.

Scott has 24 years of investment experience working with retirement plan sponsors, advisors, consultants and record-keepers. Prior to joining SEI, Scott served most recently as head of US Defined Contribution for Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management’s Global Client Group – Alternatives, where he led all DC distribution and relationship management for the company’s real estate and infrastructure capabilities.

Scott has also held investment distribution leadership positions at JP Morgan Asset Management, Affiliated Managers Group and OppenheimerFunds. Scott currently serves as co-President of the recently formed Defined Contribution Real Estate Council (DCREC), and is an active member of the Defined Contribution Institutional Investment Association (DCIIA).

"The defined contribution market is rapidly moving toward institutional standards. Plan sponsors are recognizing the need for a fiduciary partner to help navigate the complex regulatory landscape, and to provide simplified investment options like target date funds, in an effort to promote better retirement outcomes for participants," said Edward Loughlin, executive vice president, SEI and head of SEI’s Institutional Group.
