Putnam's director of global large-cap equity research is jumping to
Fidelity.
Fidelity spokesman Vin Loporchio confirmed that
Andrew Matteis will join
Pyramis Global Advisors (Fidelity's institutional-only investment management team) as director of research in August, reporting to Pyramis chief investment officer
Young Chin.
Putnam spokeswoman Laura McNamara confirmed that Matteis' last day at Putnam is Monday.
"A search is underway, both internally and externally," McNamara said of Matteis' post.
Loporchio told
The MFWire that Matteis' post at Pyramis is "essentially new," as Chin himself had previously directly led the research effort.
