He will specialize in U.S. large-cap value equity strategies.

“Eli Salzman is a well-regarded and highly experienced portfolio manager with a history of delivering superior investment performance for institutional and retail clients,’’ said Joseph Amato, Neuberger Berman’s president and chief investment officer. “We’re delighted that he has chosen Neuberger Berman as his new home.”
