"I'd like to thank him for his dedication and many contributions over the past 33 years."

In his new role, Uhlman will report to Donahue and provide overall leadership to Federated's four domestic sales units: broker/dealer; wealth management and trust; institutional and retirement; and separately managed accounts (SMAs). A 26-year veteran of the company, Uhlman has most recently served as national sales director for Federated's Institutional and Retirement Sales Division with assets totaling more than $60 billion.  In this role, he led the group responsible for sales to pension accounts and other retirement programs, endowments, foundations, states and other government entities.

He joined the company in 1990, serving as an account administrator and sales representative and later as a vice president in trust sales.  In 1999, his role expanded to sales director, global accounts.  He was named senior vice president in 2004, national sales director for institutional sales in 2007 and executive vice president in 2010. He has a bachelor's degree from the University of Pittsburgh and an MBA from Columbia University.

"Paul has successfully led the institutional sales division at Federated to new heights, expanding our relationships in the demanding world of top-level institutional investors," Donahue said. "In his new role, Paul will apply his leadership skills and management abilities to a broader, more diverse group of customers."
