The Rockefeller business, launched officially last week, continues to build out senior management.

Yet another senior former Morgan Stanley figure is joining the newly-launched Rockefeller Capital Management. Christopher Randazzo joins as head of wealth management and head of technology and operations. 

Randazzo, like Gregory J Fleming, the firm’s chief executive and president, worked previously at Morgan Stanley. Randazzo had been chief information officer for global wealth management and investment management at the US-listed firm. Prior to joining Morgan Stanley, Randazzo was the CIO for global wealth and investment management at Bank of America Merrill Lynch from 2008 to 2013. He joined Merrill Lynch in 1994 and held a variety of other senior technology roles at the firm.

Rockefeller Capital Management said it expects to continue with senior hires.

The new operation is made up of three business lines: Rockefeller Wealth Management, Rockefeller Asset Management, and Rockefeller Strategic Advisory; the firm is owned by a trust representing the broader Rockefeller family, the firm’s management and an investment fund of Viking Global Investors. As of December 31, 2017, the firm had about $18.3 billion in assets under advisement, with offices in New York, Boston and Washington, DC.

As reported last week, the senior management team members are Jonathan Eisenberg, Ed Moriarty, Jeffrey Shames and Harry Singh. They will report to Fleming. Eisenberg will serve as general counsel; Moriarty will be the chief financial officer; Shames will be a senior strategy advisor; and Singh will be the chief operating officer. David Harris will continue as chief investment officer and head of asset management, and Elizabeth Munson as president of the Rockefeller Trust Companies. These executives report to Fleming.
