Fidelity spokesman Vin Loporchio said Mike Wilens, head of Fidelity’s asset management unit, will replace Scott David, who Loporchio said needs to attend to his family’s medical issues. The two men will start the transition immediately, according to Fidelity.
Loporchio said Jacques Perold, chief operating officer of the asset management group, will take over Wilens’ role.
Wilens went to work at Fidelity in 2006 where he has supervised Fidelity Management & Research Company, Pyramis Global Advisors, and Strategic Advisers.
