Over the last year and a half, Treanor led the hedge fund research team at Slocum, vetting, designing and monitoring clients’ direct hedge fund allocations. He works closely with some of the firm’s largest health care, pension, foundation and endowment clients to implement and monitor portfolios of direct investments in hedge funds.

In his new role, Treanor will develop and lead Slocum’s research team of 26 investment and compliance professionals to find the best, most efficient investment managers for each client’s investment structure.
