Foundation Source, a company that establishes and provides management and advisory services for private foundations, has appointed Scott Rose as managing director of the US central region.
Rose’s appointment marks a key step in Foundation Source’s strategy to build its presence in the Midwest.
He will be based out of the Chicago office and will be responsible for building the brand and growing the firm’s business in Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota and Nebraska.
“Scott has an extensive track record in wholesale distribution and asset gathering,” says CEO Susan Friedlander Calzone. “The depth of his experience and network with wealth managers throughout the Central region bring great value to the continued growth of our business.”
With over 20 years of experience in the financial services industry, Rose was most recently a vice president and client adviser at JP Morgan, where he was responsible for wholesale distribution of JP Morgan mutual funds, SMAs, and ETFs to wirehouses.
He has held similar roles at Allianz Global Investors as well as DWS/Scudder Kemper Investments. Previously he was a financial advisor at Prudential Securities.
“Scott has worked closely with a number of key wirehouses, including Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, UBS and Wells Fargo Advisors,” says chief distribution officer Joseph M. Fuschillo. “Leveraging his connections to these distribution channels will provide a number of opportunities for our team and we are excited to bring him on board.”
