NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Jun 4, 2014) - Clearbrook Global Advisors, a privately held, independent investment management firm, today announced three key appointments.

Timothy C. Ng has been appointed to the role of Chief Investment Officer. In this newly created role, Mr. Ng will continue as Chairman of Clearbrook's Investment Committee and set the strategic direction for all investments for the firm's clients including non-discretionary, discretionary and Outsourced CIO (OCIO) accounts. Based in New York, he will continue to report to Elliott Wislar, CEO.

Over his 32 year career, Mr. Ng has had oversight of more than $5 billion of investor capital on behalf of corporations, pension funds, endowments and foundations, banks, investment advisory firms, and family offices. He was one of the first advisors to place investor capital into hedge funds, portable alpha portfolios, structured hedge fund linked notes, and insurance dedicated hedge fund products.

Jay Tubianosa was appointed Chief Risk Officer where he will be responsible for centralizing existing functions and identifying and managing risk across all client portfolios and Clearbrook service offerings. Mr. Tubianosa will work closely with senior management to identify, propose and implement enhancements to the management and monitoring of risk. He has 24 years of investment experience, and in that time has earned risk management credentials including the CFA Charterholder designation, membership of the CFA Institute, membership of the NYSSA, and membership of PRMIA (Professional Risk Management International Association) whereby he earned the Professional Risk Management Certification (PRM). 

Mark Hong has been promoted to Head of Research, a position previously held by Mr. Ng. He will oversee all aspects of manager and portfolio research for clients. Mr. Hong, a CFA Charterholder, has over 17 years of investment experience and has been a senior member of Clearbrook's research team since joining in 2010.

"The current market environment and the needs of our clients have never been more complex," said Mr. Wislar.

As our business grows, these steps further solidify the depth of our client deliverables, and demonstrate that Clearbrook is committed to setting the highest standards in the areas of investment and risk management."

"Our centralized Investment Committee is better positioned than ever to continue to deliver investment solutions for our clients while managing portfolio risk," said Ng. "I look forward to continuing to work with Elliott, Jay, Mark and the rest of the Clearbrook team to meet the evolving needs of our clients."
