Banks, for example, must contend with everything from cybersecurity hazards and the rise of AI to regulatory risk, global debt problems and increased supply-chain risk. Investment managers, meanwhile, face many of the same challenges but are also concerned with portfolio management, inflation volatility, the introduction of new tariffs, stress testing and liquidity risk obstacles.  Peter Mortensen, CRO of Russell Investments, joins us today to share his insights on the risk trends, challenges and opportunities impacting the global investment management community.

In this episode of The Rainmaker Podcast, host Gui Costin sits down with Brad Jung, Head of North America Advisor and Intermediary Solutions at Russell Investments. Jung shares insights on sales leadership, team alignment, and how to effectively manage a large, remote sales force while maintaining high performance.Jung opens with his personal story, reflecting on his early work experiences, from a childhood paper route to working construction in college. These formative experiences instilled in him the value of hard work, relationships, and the importance of service—principles that have shaped his leadership style today.As the conversation shifts to Russell Investments, Jung discusses the firm's evolution from institutional investment management to serving individual investors. He explains how the company's institutional sales approach trickled down into financial advisory services, allowing individual investors to benefit from the same level of sophistication as large institutions. With over $331 billion in assets under management as of 12/31/24, Russell Investments is a global leader in investment management solutions.A key focus of the episode is managing a remote sales force effectively. With 70% of his 120-person North American team working remotely, Jung emphasizes the importance of alignment, communication, and transparency. He structures his leadership approach around five pillars: strategy, structure, people, process, and performance. Weekly pipeline meetings ensure sales teams remain accountable, while leadership focuses on removing roadblocks to success. He also highlights the importance of tracking and reporting sales activity to prevent misalignment between internal and external sales teams.Jung introduces a "collision" communication method, where informal, unplanned conversations replace rigid, scheduled meetings. He actively reaches out to team members for short check-ins, believing these real-time interactions provide deeper insights into challenges and opportunities. He also discusses the necessity of a robust CRM system, ensuring all sales activities are logged, analyzed, and leveraged for smarter decision-making.As the discussion unfolds, Jung emphasizes the role of mentorship and continuous learning. He urges young professionals to find mentors, stay curious, and master their craft. He also shares leadership lessons from his own journey, emphasizing the importance of knowing your “why”, inspiring a shared vision, and leading with a personal, relationship-driven approach.The episode wraps with a discussion on prioritization and adaptability in leadership. Jung stresses the importance of focusing on what truly matters, staying agile in the face of industry changes, and fostering an environment where salespeople feel supported, valued, and motivated to perform at their best.

How might it benefit clients? How can I implement it?At Return Stacked Portfolio Solutions we have made it our mission to thoughtfully and transparently help allocate into a portable alpha framework for client portfolios.Join us for this deep dive podcast with Corey Hoffstein, CIO of Newfound Research, and Rodrigo Gordillo, President and Portfolio Manager at ReSolve Asset Management Global, as we explore:What 'Portable Alpha' is: Review of the history and theory of the concept.Outperformance Potential: Portable alpha/return stacking allows allocators to stack asset classes/strategies with positive expected returns on top of core assets which can help improve the likelihood of outperforming the market.Diversification Benefits: Using return stacking to stack low correlation strategies on top of the core portfolio can help reduce portfolio drawdowns, thus influencing likelihood of achieving financial plan goals.Behavioral Benefits: Sticking with low-correlation diversifiers can be difficult for clients. Return stacking can improve the likelihood clients stick with diversifiers long enough for them to realize the benefits.

Stay in touch and sign up for Paco's weekly email newsletter, The Nerdletter.  In this episode of Weird Finance, host Paco de Leon, along with Stephanie Bucko and Cristina Livadary from Mana Financial Life Design (@manafld), dive into the essentials of thinking like a financial planner. They discuss targeting clients with growth mindsets, particularly those in helping professions and the sandwich generation. Stephanie explains the trade-offs for business owners aiming to keep taxes low versus paying more into Social Security and retirement plans. Christina shares insights on mastering personal finance and emphasizes the importance of understanding financial numbers.  Cristina is a Certified Financial Planner® and Registered Life Planner®. Before Mana, she led sales and consulting efforts as a Regional Director with Russell Investments, where she consulted for and worked with over 10,000 financial advisors. After years of experience in the industry she grew dissatisfied with the wide disparities in knowledge, empathy, and skill within the advisor population. Cristina is a Bucknell University graduate, with a BA in Political Science and Spanish. She launched Mana with Stephanie in 2018 based on the belief that even greater success can be achieved by solving issues holistically - with individuals and their families. Since founding Mana, Cristina has been recognized for her accomplishments within the industry by leading organizations such as Investment News' 40 under 40 in 2020 and Investopedia's Top 100 Advisors in 2023. Cristina is living her own life plan, working in her dream career as a business owner and a financial life planner who does everything in her power to positively impact the lives of her clients. When she's not hard at work, you can find Cristina in the great outdoors. She is passionate about surfing and adventuring around the world with her family and friends. Stephanie is a Certified Public Accountant and Chartered Financial Analyst®. She graduated from Bucknell University with a BSBA in Accounting. Following her undergraduate education, she audited hedge funds in New York City with PricewaterhouseCoopers during the 2008 financial crisis, and then joined Man Group, the world's largest publicly traded hedge fund. At Man Group she served as a risk manager for six years, handling $15 billion in hedge funds. After years of serving banks, pensions and endowments, Stephanie became interested in bringing institutional quality services to a broader population. In 2018, Stephanie launched Mana with Cristina out of the realization that investment management is only a small piece of the services that individuals truly need in a financial advisor. Since founding Mana, Stephanie has been recognized for her accomplishments within the industry by leading organizations such as Investopedia's Top 100 Advisors of 2023. She is also a regular contributor to MyStockOptions.com, the financial advice industry's premier site for equity compensation. When Stephanie isn't educating herself on the markets or building complex spreadsheets, you can find her outside. Her favorite days are spent on the ski slopes, riding horses, and bird watching.

More than 50 percent of mutual fund and ETF assets track passive indices, which makes index methodology important. Episode 68 is all about index history and evolution and how the usage of indexes as investment products changed the industry.    Rolf Agather has been in the indexing industry since the 1980s. He started Russell, moved around the industry a bit, then went back to Russell Investments and in 2002 became the Managing Director, Research and Innovation, Russell Indexes. He remained there after a merger with FTSE and became the FTSE Russell Managing Director, Research, North America. Rolf moved to Morningstar in 2020 as Morningstar's Head of Research and Product, Indexes.   The Bogleheads on Investing podcast is hosted by Rick Ferri, CFA, a long-time Boglehead and investment adviser. The Bogleheads are a group of like-minded individual investors who follow the general investment and business beliefs of John C.
