The views expressed herein do not constitute research, investment advice or trade recommendations, and do not necessarily represent the views of all AB portfolio-management teams and are subject to change over time.
As Co-Head of Fixed Income and Director of Global Fixed Income, Scott DiMaggio oversees all of AB's Global Fixed Income, Canada Fixed Income and US Multi-Sector Fixed Income strategies, as well as their associated investment strategy, activities and portfolio-management teams. Prior to joining AB's Fixed Income portfolio-management team, he performed quantitative investment analysis, including asset-liability, asset-allocation, return attribution and risk analysis for the firm.
DiMaggio came to AB as a quantitative analyst, drawn by the firm's culture of strong mentoring and smart, collaborative people who wanted to win for their clients.
"The world of fixed income—the world I grew up in—is enormously complex," DiMaggio says. Its complexity needs an active management approach. His investment philosophy combines the lenses of fundamental and quantitative research to generate the information that can lead to risk-adjusted returns for clients. Fully leveraging AB's proprietary technology, it's a process that DiMaggio and his team refine and repeat.
"What we do is process driven and structured," DiMaggio says. "We like to be consistent."
Bernd Wuebben oversees the Quantitative Research Group for Fixed Income, where he is responsible for developing the quantitative models and methods that are an important aspect of the firm's investment process. Prior to joining AB, Wuebben worked from 2008 to 2018 as a quantitative investment portfolio manager, managing portfolios that invested in liquid traded assets across all major geographic locations and asset classes. His quantitative investment process made heavy use of big data and machine learning. Prior to this, Wuebben worked for 10 years as a macro and relative-value strategist as well as a proprietary trader for major investment banks including Morgan Stanley, Bear Stearns and Deutsche Bank, where he started his career in 1998 as a fixed-income strategist. He holds a BS in mathematics and a BS in physics from Heidelberg University, Germany, and an MS in mathematics and an MS in computer science from Cornell University. Wuebben also passed the doctoral exam in mathematics at Cornell University, where his research focused on the mathematical aspects of superstring theory. Location: New York
