Hall Capital Partners, an independent investment adviser overseeing approximately $18 billion in global multi-asset class strategies, has appointed John Buoymaster as president.
Buoymaster, 57, retains his duties as director of portfolio management and as a member of Hall Capital's executive committee and board of directors, while assuming his role as president.
John Boneparth, who previously served as president, departed from the San Francisco-based firm in June to resume his former consulting business.
Also effective July 1, Hall Capital's executive committee has been expanded to include: Eric Alt, managing director, co-director of research, and head of the absolute return group; Sarah Stein, managing director, co-director of research, and head of the capital markets group; Richard Grand-Jean, managing director and director of business development; and Helane Morrison, managing director, general counsel, and chief compliance officer.
"I'm delighted to announce John Buoymaster's appointment as president of our firm. He has been a partner and significant contributor to our company for more than 11 years," said Kathryn Hall, chief executive officer and chief investment officer of Hall Capital Partners.
Buoymaster joined the firm in 1998 as managing director. Previously, he was a vice resident in the San Francisco office of J.P. Morgan & Co., where he advised individuals and families on investment strategy, portfolio structuring and generational planning. Earlier, he was a partner at the San Francisco and Palo Alto law firm of Cooley Godward Castro Huddleson & Tatum, concentrating on estate and tax planning and representation of non-profit organizations.
