Chris Wolff
Chris joined MUUS in 2013 as the Portfolio Manager for MUUS & Company, the parent company for all MUUS activities. In addition to this role, Chris is a member of the MUUS Investment Committee, a member of the MUUS Sustainable Portfolio’s Investment Committee, and a Principal of MUUS. Chris is focused on sourcing promising investment ideas, managing an “all-weather” portfolio, and maintaining the integrity of an investment process that he strives to continuously improve.
Chris graduated from Princeton University in 2001 and embarked upon a career on Wall Street. He started as a licensed electronic broker dealer during the transition from legacy telephonic transactions to electronic execution of equity orders. He switched to the buy side two years later, first as an equities trader and later as a macro trader for hedge fund Exis Capital Management. Chris subsequently became an analyst in the Financials sector covering publicly traded banks, brokers, insurance companies, exchanges, specialty finance lenders, REITS, asset managers and financial technology companies. Chris maintained his focus on publicly traded stocks while working at three different hedge funds over the course of ten years and through several cycles, including the Great Financial Crisis. After rising to Principal and Senior Financial Analyst at his last hedge fund stop MDR Capital Management, Chris was keen to transfer his macro and public equity analysis and trading skills into an environment with a longer duration investment focus and a more diverse palate of public and private opportunities through which to express strategic investment themes. In 2013, he found these opportunities at MUUS and has been working to help build out the team ever since.
In his life outside of work, Chris works as a short order cook for his three young children specializing in breakfast. He is also an avid non-fiction reader, sports fan, tennis player, and golfer.
