Introducing the Rising Stars in Asset Management age 35 and under.

We scoured our contacts for ideas on who we should include, receiving recommendations from bosses, colleagues, recruiters and others working in the asset management industry. The editors made final decisions.

We’ve included people with a variety of roles and experiences, from companies including D.E. Shaw, State Street, Fidelity, BlackRock, Bridgewater, Point72, Millennium, AllianceBernstein, Och-Ziff, and Vanguard.

Some have risen to senior roles within established firms. Take Karen Karniol-Tambour, 32,who oversees research and about 100 staffers at Bridgewater Associates, the world’s largest hedge-fund firm with $160 billion. We’ve also included Eric Evans, a 26-year-old director of research at Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers, a New York hedge fund.

Others have put up particularly strong numbers. Brian Lempel, 35, who manages about $12 billion at Fidelity, was up about 44% in his portfolio for the first half of this year.

Others have embarked on launching their own companies, like Fahmi Quadir, 27, who, after making an impressive short bet on Valeant, is launching a short-selling-focused hedge fund, Safkhet Capital.

We came across many talented people, and this list is by no means comprehensive. To be eligible, we asked that nominees be based in or around the New York area, age 35 or under, and distinguished in some way from the pack.
