As anticipated, Fiduciary Trust Company International, a global asset management firm with $46 billion under management, named Anne M. Tatlock chief executive officer today. Ms. Tatlock, 60, assumes the position from the firm's current chairman and CEO, Lawrence S. Huntington, who has held the CEO position since 1973. He was made chairman in 1983. Mr. Huntington will remain as chairman until his expected retirement next year. Ms. Tatlock will retain the role of president, a title she has held since 1994, and will continue to oversee all investment activities at Fiduciary. Prior to being named president, she was executive vice president in charge of institutional global equity investments. "We are delighted to see Anne take on the role of CEO, a position that is well-deserved after her many years of investing world-wide and her successful record as president," said Mr. Huntington. He noted that during Tatlock's tenure, Fiduciary's assets have grown from $28 billion to $46 billion. "Our business will continue to expand around the globe as we enter the next century, and Anne has the vision, experience and maturity to manage Fiduciary's progress," stated Mr. Huntington.
