Bob Doll Named Crossmark CEO

Crossmark Global Investments announced that its chief investment officer, Bob Doll, has taken on the additional role of president and chief executive officer, effective Tuesday.

Doll, a 44-year industry veteran known for his annual 10 Predictions lists, succeeds Mike Kern, who is stepping down from these positions at the faith-based investment management firm to pursue other opportunities. Doll has been Crossmark’s chief investment officer since June 2021 and portfolio manager for the firm’s multiple U.S. large-cap equity strategies.

He has held leadership roles at several global asset management firms, including chief equity strategist and senior portfolio manager at Nuveen Asset Management and positions  at BlackRock, Merrill Lynch Investment Managers and OppenheimerFunds.
