Prior to his work at Wells Fargo, he was managing director, CLO/ABS trading at Citadel Securities and managing director, CLO/ABS trading and origination at Institutional Credit Partners. He earned his bachelor’s degree in finance from Rutgers College.

Farley will join Jeffrey Stroll, David Kim and William Lemberg in managing the firm’s CLO and structured credit solutions.
