Voya also announced today that Eric Stein, who most recently
served as CIO, fixed income, at Morgan Stanley Investment
Management (MSIM), has joined Voya IM as head of investments and
CIO, fixed income. Stein reports to Toms.
“I am grateful to Christine for her amazing leadership and
stewardship of our Investment Management business,” said Lavallee.
“Over her almost 20-year career with Voya IM, including seven years
of service as CEO, Christine achieved a number of strategic,
financial and operational outcomes, including the successful
integration of several acquisitions that have expanded our asset
management capabilities and global reach. I am thankful for having
had the benefit of Christine’s insights, drive and passion for our
business, and I wish her and her family all the best as she begins
her transition to retirement.
“Also, I am excited to have Matt leading Voya IM as it executes
on its growth strategy and continues to build on its strong
pipeline across institutional and retail markets in the U.S. and
internationally. Matt has been global CIO since 2022, has 30 years
of asset management expertise, and has great insights into the
needs of our clients. His deep knowledge and experience with our
firm, and his passion for our clients, will serve him well as he
leads Voya IM into its next stage of growth,” added Lavallee.
“We have made great progress in evolving Voya IM to become the
global firm that we are today,” said Hurtsellers. “The growth and
expansion that we have achieved is the result of the hard work of
our colleagues, who have always prioritized the needs of our
clients. After almost 20 years at Voya, and as I look ahead to
retirement and the ability to attend to my family’s needs, I am
grateful for and proud of all that the team has accomplished over
the years. In the meantime, I look forward to working closely with
Matt and Heather — and to engaging with our clients, intermediaries
and employees — to ensure a smooth transition.”
As Voya IM’s global CIO, Toms led the firm’s more than 300
investment professionals who are managing approximately $310
billion in assets under management across fixed income, equities,
multi-asset solutions and alternative strategies. Previously, Toms
served as CIO, fixed income. Prior to joining Voya IM in 2009, Toms
worked with Calamos Investments, where he established and grew its
fixed income business. He also previously held roles with Northern
Trust and Lincoln National.
“It’s an honor to be leading Voya IM, and I am excited about the
opportunities ahead,” said Toms. “Over the past several years, we
have successfully grown our capabilities and our reach to serve the
expanding needs of our clients, and I’m looking forward to working
with the many talented professionals across our firm to continue
our growth trajectory. I also want to express my tremendous
gratitude to Christine for her leadership and guidance. I am
grateful to have her insights and perspective as we make a smooth
transition.”
Stein, in his new role as head of investments as well as CIO,
fixed income, will directly lead the public fixed income investment
team as well as oversee the broader equities, income and growth,
and multi-asset strategies and solutions investment teams. Chris
Lyons, head of private fixed income and alternatives investments,
will continue to report to Toms.
As CIO, fixed income at MSIM, Stein was responsible for
overseeing 275 professionals and the management of investment
strategies for MSIM’s approximately $200 billion fixed income
platform, including agency mortgage-backed securities, emerging
markets, floating-rate loans, high-yield, investment grade credit,
multi-sector, municipals and securitized strategies.
Prior to MSIM, Eric held several portfolio management roles at
Eaton Vance since 2009, including most recently serving as CIO for
Eaton Vance’s entire fixed income group, which included investment
teams across high-yield, bank loan, municipal investments, emerging
market debt/global macro, securitized, investment grade corporate
and multi-asset investment disciplines.
“I am excited to have Eric on the Voya IM leadership team,”
added Toms. “His more than 20 years of investment experience and
demonstrated expertise in leading sizable teams throughout his
career will no doubt bring great value to our investment teams and
our clients. Equally important, Eric’s approach to money management
aligns fully with the collaborative approach of our investment
professionals at Voya IM. I am looking forward to having his
leadership and insights as we execute on our growth plans.”
