Daniel C. Roarty can boast that at a phase in life when coolness matters, his daughters think his job on Wall Street is cool. The reason? His investment strategy revolves around identifying the biggest issues facing the world and constructing thematic investment portfolios around them.
World hunger, climate change, access to healthcare—these themes play primary roles in the strategies Roarty crafts every day. His work gives him the opportunity to do good by merging his professional life with pressing issues.
Roarty feels lucky to be at a firm like AB that has given him the freedom to take a holistic, global approach to investing and build out his own team and strategy since he joined in 2011.
