Vanguard has appointed Salim Ramji as CEO.
Ramji succeeds Tim Buckley, who previously announced, he will retire as chairman and CEO.
Ramji is a senior financial services executive with more than 25 years of experience in investments, capital markets and wealth management, including a decade as a senior leader at BlackRock, leaving in January 2024. Most recently, Ramji was global head of iShares & Index Investing, where he was responsible for managing a majority of the firm’s client assets and evolving the iShares platform to provide an even broader set of innovative low-cost products for investors globally. His contributions led to expanded investment access for millions of investors, a more central role for ETFs in retirement and wealth portfolios and a more efficient bond market with ETFs as an enabling technology. At BlackRock, he led the implementation of a voting-choice platform, which democratizes client access to the proxy voting process.
