Anne-Marie Fink, who oversees investments with external managers at the State of Wisconsin Investment Board (SWIB), says her three-decade career has followed a consistent path. “The arc of my career has been to establish a foundation of knowledge and then build on it to become ever broader. I started by working at individual companies before business school, and then my first finance job was analyzing equities within specific sectors. From there, I went on to manage funds and then entire portfolios. That progression has served me very well because I understand the building blocks that you need to construct a portfolio.”
