Fund Evaluation Group's Nolan Bean Recognized Among World's Most Influential Investment Consultants
Cincinnati, Ohio (PRWEB) November 24, 2016 -- Fund Evaluation Group, LLC, (FEG), a leading investment advisory firm, announced that head of institutional investments, Nolan M. Bean, CFA, CAIA, was recently named one of the top 10 institutional investment consultants in the business by Chief Investment Officer (CIO) magazine.
The magazine included Bean on its 2016 Knowledge Brokers list, an annual ranking of the world’s most influential consultants in the investment universe. Sourced from interviews with pension and nonprofit CIOs, asset managers, and former consultants, the Knowledge Brokers represents CIO magazine’s list of the top investment consultants in the industry.
When interviewed for the award, Bean commented that just about everything is too expensive in today’s market. “We’ve stolen returns from the future,” he said. “I’m hard-pressed to see how we’re going to deliver good returns out of the S&P 500 going forward.” He added rather than reaching for yield or ramping up risk to deliver the needed returns, investors should exercise discipline in their investment program. “You need a disciplined risk management approach so that when there are good opportunities in the market you have the wherewithal to actually take advantage of them.”
Bean joined FEG in 2004 and is one of 15 managing principals. His primary focus is working with some of the firm’s largest consulting clients. In addition, Bean oversees the firm’s overall institutional investment strategy. As part of this role, he sits on the firm’s Investment Policy Committee, which sets strategic vision, approves capital market assumptions, and approves managers for inclusion in FEG’s recommended list, as well as the Investment Advisory Committee, which helps align client interests with the firm’s discretionary portfolio management team through dynamic feedback and advice.
