OVERVIEW

About the Fund

Bonnie Baha was regarded as one of the top investment minds in the country. She was a partner at DoubleLine Capital LP and integral to launching the firm in 2009 and helping to build it into one of the fastest-growing asset managers of all time. As head of Global Developed Credit, she and her team managed investments in fixed income. She was named one of the “Top Women in Asset Management” by Money Management Executive in 2016, and was very frequently quoted in the press due to her uncanny ability to distill a complex problem to its essence, often with a good dose of humor.

The fund’s purpose is to provide scholarships to support women enrolled in a graduate degree program and with a demonstrated interest in pursuing a career in financial services.
