Janus CEO Dropping CIO Title to Focus on Assets

Janus Chief Executive Officer Gary Black is relinquishing his role as chief investment officer as well, in order to focus on boosting the firm’s assets, which, at $158 billion, are about half of what they were at a peak of $300 billion at the end of the bull market.

The company believes it is in a strong position to do so since its three-year performance numbers relative to peers are the best since 2001.

Assuming the role of co-CIOs now will be Jonathan Coleman and Gibson Smith.
