Stralem & Company, Inc. Names Guthrie Intermediary Sales Director
NEW YORK, Sept. 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Stralem & Company Incorporated, a New York based asset management firm founded in 1966, has hired Ryan P. Guthrie as Director, Intermediary Sales and Relationship Management effective September 2. Guthrie joins Mark Sullivan, Director of Institutional Sales and Relationship Management.
Guthrie brings over a dozen years of experience in intermediary sales and client service to Stralem. Before joining the firm, Guthrie served as Director of Intermediary Sales for Tocqueville Asset Management, where he was responsible for establishing relationships within RIA's, private wealth teams, investment committees, family offices, major wirehouses and broker-dealers, which resulted in superior sales results for the firm. Prior to Tocqueville, Guthrie was Business Development Manager for Abbey Capital Limited, Regional Sales Director for Mass Mutual Financial Group and Senior Regional Sales Associate for AXA Financial.
"We're excited that Ryan is joining us. He brings deep and broad experience in client relationship management, within the intermediary world," said Stralem Co-Founder Hirschel B. Abelson, President and Chief Investment Officer. "His track record speaks volumes about his understanding of the intermediary marketplace and how to build enduring, trust-based relationships."
With $3.1 billion in assets under management as of June 30, 2014, Stralem is singularly focused on US Large Cap Equity management. Their flagship portfolio, the US Large Cap Equity Strategy™ is available to investors in separately managed accounts, a U.S. mutual fund and an offshore UCITS fund.
Stralem's strategy has a long history of outperforming the S&P 500 with far less volatility. Focusing on providing growth and protection of capital in one, long-only strategy, Stralem uses a conservative growth management style that focuses on participating in up markets and while preserving capital during down markets. The strategy is also characterized by its concentration on approximately 30 stocks, very low portfolio turnover and management's preference for long-term investing.
"Our single strategy focus avoids the competition for dedicated resources experienced by many other firms," Abelson continued, "and since all of our principals and employees are invested in the strategy, our investors have the assurance of knowing that our interests are directly aligned with theirs."
