Lombard Odier IM CIO to retire

Published by Fund Strategy – 24th July 2017 

Lombard Odier Investment Managers’ global chief investment officer will retire at the end of this year.

CIO Jan Straatman joined Lombard Odier in 2012 tasked with streamlining the firm’s range of investment strategies and creating a standalone structure within the various divisions, each with their own CIO.

Ahead of Straatman’s departure, his responsibilities will be transferred to the CIOs within these investment boutiques. Straatman will remain on the boards of the funds and as an adviser to Lombard Odier.

Hubert Keller, CEO at Lombard Odier IM, says: “Jan has been a valuable member of the Lombard Odier IM management team over the last five years.

Jan’s vision has always been to position Lombard Odier IM as a specialist multi-strategy player providing quality investment solutions for our clients.

His hard work, deep understanding of investment processes and risk management, and his very effective management style has considerably helped us to achieve this goal. I wish him well as he embarks on this new chapter in his life.”
