The firm announced that Julie M. Schmuelling will be taking over the position from Michael T. Buckius. Buckius, who was named president in 2021, remains CEO and chief investment officer at the firm.
An affiliate of Natixis Investment Managers since its 2008 acquisition, Gateway currently manages approximately $9.1 billion in assets as of June 30.
Buckius acknowledged Schmuelling’s contributions over the past 10 years in a statement announcing the move.
“In the decade she has worked here, Julie has contributed significantly to the operational side of Gateway’s business, including making outstanding senior hires,” he said.
Schmuelling, who joined Gateway as chief financial officer in 2014, has taken on expanding responsibilities over her tenure, encompassing compliance, financial reporting, client accounting, and information technology.
