PIMCO Canadian portfolio manager Ed Devlin leaving investing giant
The head of Canadian portfolio management at Pacific Investment Management Co., Ed Devlin, will leave the U.S.-based bond giant this summer after spending more than a decade there.
Devlin began working at PIMCO in 2006 and is a managing director at the firm, according to his online company biography. He is responsible for shaping the Canadian economic outlook and portfolio strategies for the company, which is owned by massive German insurer Allianz SE.
Before joining PIMCO, Devlin worked around the world for investment banks Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch.
Devlin told the Financial Post in an email that he is full-time until June 30, after which he expects to take some time off this summer.
“The only specific plan I have is to ensure a smooth transition of my duties,” he wrote, adding that, post-PIMCO, he has “a bunch of ideas, but no specific plans.”
