UPPER SADDLE RIVER, N.J., March 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Seix Investment Advisors LLC, a subsidiary of RidgeWorth Capital Management, Inc., is pleased to announce the hiring of Sarita Narson Jairath as Managing Director and Senior Investment Manager of Leveraged Finance.
In this capacity, Jairath will play a key role in enhancing client service for Seix's growing institutional client base on its Leveraged Finance platform, and in driving continued assets under management (AUM) growth in that platform. Her three broad areas of responsibility include senior relationship management for institutional clients on the Leveraged Finance platform, product development and positioning within that platform and serving as a technical investment management advocate for Seix investment management capabilities to the North American institutional consultant community.
"As RidgeWorth continues to evolve and expand, adding the right talent is a top priority," said Ashi S. Parikh, RidgeWorth Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer. "We are excited for Sarita to join the team – she brings the energy and experience to our firm that is critical in today's marketplace."
Jairath joins Seix after spending more than three years at J.P. Morgan, most recently serving as an Executive Director and credit product specialist within their Manager Selection team in Asset Management Solutions. There, she directed all investment management due diligence conducted on credit managers on their $200+ billion platform, to include managers in asset classes such as high yield, leveraged loans, liquid alternatives, absolute return, municipals and preferreds. She also served as a key marketing resource for J.P. Morgan Private Bank's multi-manager credit strategies, where she helped raise almost $20 billion in AUM over the last three years, primarily from endowments, foundations and private banking clientele of J.P. Morgan. Prior to joining J.P. Morgan, Jairath spent seven years with Goldman Sachs as a Vice President and Fixed Income Sales Trader, and was affiliated with Neuberger Berman Inc.
"I have had the pleasure of interacting with Sarita during the last two years, and I can therefore attest to her strong technical investment knowledge," said Patrick Mc Nelis, Managing Director, Head of Global Distribution & Client Service of Seix. "Given Sarita's strong relationships, she will be a great asset to Seix and RidgeWorth as we move into the future."
