PIMCO Launches Global Multi-Asset Fund

PIMCO has launched the PIMCO Global Multi-Asset Fund ("GMAF"), the firm's new asset allocation mutual fund. GMAF is managed by a team led by Co-Chief Investment Officer Mohamed A. El-Erian and that also includes Vineer Bhansali, a managing director and head of the portfolio management analytics group, and Curtis Mewbourne, a managing director and generalist portfolio manager.

"Transformations in global economic and financial conditions are challenging traditional asset allocation products," said Mr. El-Erian. "When we began developing this fund early this year, we recognized that ongoing market developments and economic transformations would impact the future set of investor opportunities, and also involve a new and significant configuration of risks. The current financial crisis illustrates this recognition and underscores the need to provide clients with an expanded universe of investment solutions."

"The Global Multi-Asset Fund is designed to tap into PIMCO's complete views across risk exposures and asset classes, both in the U.S. and abroad. It is an important part of the firm's continued evolution as a provider of global investment solutions for clients," Mr. El-Erian added.
