Former Lord Abbett Director of Fixed Income Joins Advisory Board of ABR Dynamic Funds

NEW YORK, Oct. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- ABR Dynamic Funds, LLC, a global investment management firm, today announced their newest advisory board member, Zane Brown, who recently retired as Fixed Income Strategist and before that, Director of Fixed Income at Lord Abbett & Co. LLC, a leading asset management firm with over $150 billion in assets.

Mr. Brown brings a wealth of experience to ABR as a seasoned expert in business development in the asset management space.  Brown, who has more than 30 years of experience in the financial services industry, joined Lord Abbett in 1992 and became a Partner in 1996 until his retirement in September 2017.  Prior to Lord Abbett, Mr. Brown was an Executive Vice President at Equitable Capital Management Corp., and before that, he was a Manager in the Bond Department at Brown Brothers Harriman and Co.  

Mr. Brown has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, and Pensions & Investments, and has been interviewed on CNN and CNBC, among other media, discussing interest rates and Federal Reserve Board policies. In addition, Mr. Brown is published in the Journal of Behavioral Finance.

"Zane's experience and strategic thinking in fixed income business development helped grow Lord Abbett into one of the top privately-held investment managers in the world," said Taylor Lukof, founder & CEO of ABR Dynamic Funds.  "His insights on scaling ABR into one of the leading liquid alternative investment management firms will be equally if not more transformational."

Mr. Brown has been focused on business development in both domestic and international markets, having led Lord Abbett's push into Asia.  Now he sees massive opportunities in the growth of the liquid alternatives markets, especially with most traditional equity and fixed income portfolios trading near all-time highs.  "ABR is in the early stages of building a robust, scalable liquid alts business with unparalleled intellectual property across several different asset classes, including volatility and my specialty, fixed income," he said.  "If Taylor and his team can continue to execute as they have over the past few years, they could become one of the premier global providers of liquid alternatives funds.  I am excited to join their advisory board."
