FEG CEO Scott B. Harsh to Step Down at the End of the Year, Rebecca S. Wood Named Next President and CEO
CINCINNATI (PRWEB) November 19, 2018 -- FEG Investment Advisors, one of the largest investment consulting firms in the U.S.,* today announced that after 28 years with the firm, President and CEO Scott B. Harsh is stepping down at the end of the year.
FEG’s Board of Directors has appointed Rebecca (Becky) S. Wood, previously Head of Institutional Services, President and CEO. Wood, a 26-year FEG veteran, has been a member of the leadership team since 2002, and has been instrumental in the company’s success.
“We wish Scott the best in his personal endeavors after a long tenure at the helm of FEG,” Nolan Bean, Head of Institutional Investments and FEG Board Member, said. “Becky’s collaborative style, experience, and knowledge of the industry, and client-centric focus make her the ideal leader for FEG’s future.”
Harsh joined FEG in 1990, two years after the firm was established. With his leadership, FEG grew to advise approximately $69 billion in assets.** In 2017, Harsh oversaw the transition of the firm from a partnership to an employee stock ownership program (ESOP) structure, which helped to set the foundation for future growth. As he steps down, he will work closely with FEG to ensure a smooth transition.
“I am excited and committed to our plans for strong future growth,” Wood said. “Our commitment to the needs of our clients and our focus on independence will continue to drive us every day.”
