“Lochiel has been an extremely important thought partner to me and a key part of our leadership team these past few years. He has a unique background in our industry, including experiences not only on the distribution and investment management front, but also as a client. That mix of perspectives is something we’ll benefit greatly from as we continue to focus on serving our clients’ evolving needs,” Taraporevala said.
