DoubleLine is an independent, employee-owned money management firm, founded in 2009. The firm offers a wide array of investment strategies run by an experienced team of portfolio managers that has worked together for many years, employing active risk management, in-depth research, and innovative product solutions. Led by CEO-CIO Jeffrey Gundlach, DoubleLine was founded in 2009 when Mr. Gundlach came to believe his goal of asset management excellence was not shared by owners of the firm that his team had built to prominence over the preceding 24 years. "Active management permeates all stages of the investment process. Starting with the top-down macroeconomic outlook, which influences sector rotation, yield curve positioning and credit exposures, to the bottom-up security selection, each step in the process is focused on finding the best reward-to-risk opportunities." -Jeffrey Sherman, CFA, DoubleLine Deputy Chief Investment Officer
