Praise for Investment Leadership and Portfolio Management

“This short book packs a lot of wisdom about portfolio management. It demonstrates the importance of firm culture and longer time horizons to successful investing, while putting forward a truly creative approach to performance fees.”—Bob Pozen, Chairman, MFS Investment Management

“Singer and Fedorinchik have added an important book to the library of investment leaders. They drill deep into the question of product-driven vs. investment-driven firms, covering important foundational topics like vision, mission, culture, compensation, and fee structures. When serious practitioners like these three take the time to write about best practices, the result is a book that rings true. Full of practical ideas that are supported by a deep understanding of the underlying financial theories and lots of real-world, front-line experience. A must-read for all investment professionals who are committed to ‘getting it right’ in this post-crisis environment.”—James Ware, CFA, author of High Performing Investment Teams, founder of Focus Consulting Group

“In an exceptional and decidedly unique style, Investment Leadership and Portfolio Management deserves special attention from any investor. The authors weave a wonderful mosaic of the investment management landscape that is both different from other investment books and compelling in its focus on the truly relevant issues. The case studies and references to actual experiences make this book an enjoyable read and, equally important, provide long-sought attention to the factors that really matter in the quest for investment performance.”—Gary P. Brinson, President, GP Brinson Investments

“Singer and Fedorinchik have laid out a clear vision of the modern, post-crisis asset management firm in which the interests of the investment professionals, the firm and the end client are fully aligned.
