PINE Advisor Solutions, a provider of outsourced solutions for funds and investment managers, has appointed Cory Gossard, Director of Regulatory Compliance. A seasoned compliance executive, Gossard will manage and help grow the Chief Compliance Officer services PINE provides to registered fund clients.
Gossard brings 25 years of asset management industry experience to his new role, including serving as a chief compliance officer for investment firms and several exchange-traded funds. He launched his financial services career at Citibank, where he held positions in fund services, program management and compliance during his 18-year tenure. Gossard also served as Chief Compliance Officer for SS&C Alps. At the firm, Gossard oversaw compliance, Anti-Money Laundering (AML), risk management, portfolio compliance, internal audits and outsourced CCO services. He was also fund CCO for the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust, SPDR DJIA ETF Trust, and SPDR S&P MidCap 400 ETF Trust with aggregate AUM in excess of $350 billion.
Gossard joins PINE from Vident Investment Advisory LLC, where he was chief compliance officer and managed all aspects of Advisor compliance, while also driving business development. A certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist, Gossard holds a bachelor’s degree in business from Heidelberg University.
“Adding someone of Cory’s caliber to our team strengthens our ability to serve our clients and allows us to offer an expert who is deeply experienced in developing solutions for a wide range of regulatory compliance needs,” said PINE Advisor Solutions Founder and Managing Director J.B. Blue.
PINE has seen demand for chief compliance officer services grow as new and established investment firms have launched a bevy of new products, including ETFs, as well as interval and tender offer funds. For registered fund clients, PINE will provide a qualified individual to act as the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer and, when applicable, Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Officer. Each Fund CCO is supported by a full team of compliance professionals.
“I’m excited to expand PINE’s CCO service capabilities to meet the industry’s changing needs and to build a world-class team ready to deliver comprehensive support,” said Gossard. “I have used my expertise to support growth in my previous roles and pride myself on creating efficiencies and cultivating genuine relationships with clients.”
