The Boards of Directors/Trustees (together, the “Board”) of The RBB Fund Complex (“RBB”), a pioneer of the independent series trust, are pleased to announce that Julian A. Brodsky has been appointed as Director/Trustee Emeritus of RBB effective February 1, 2024.

Mr. Brodsky served as a Director of RBB from RBB’s founding in 1988 until his recent appointment as Director/Trustee Emeritus, and he has participated on various Board committees, including most recently the Audit, Contract and Nominating and Governance Committees. During his tenure, RBB has transformed into one of the premier turnkey solutions within the ETF and mutual fund industry, independent of any bank sponsor or service provider.

“Julian’s contribution to RBB since the beginning has been exceptional,” said Arnold Reichman, Chairman of RBB. “We thank Julian for his dedication, valuable advice and leadership spanning the past three decades. Not only has he been an exemplary Board member, he’s also been a great friend to us all. We value his commitment to RBB and look forward to his continued service as Director/Trustee Emeritus.”

Mr. Brodsky is a co-founder of Comcast Corporation, and served as Vice Chairman, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Comcast throughout various points in his career. His contributions have been instrumental in shaping the company's success as a major telecommunications and media conglomerate providing cable television, internet services, and other related products.

“My time on the RBB Board is one that I will cherish and am most proud of,” said Brodsky. “Over the past 30 years, we have had much success, including both innovation and growth. The shareholders are in good hands with my fellow Board members, the future is bright.”

Mr. Brodsky has served, and continues to serve, on several public company and non-profit boards, including the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia Chamber Music Society, and Educational Foundation of CTAM. Mr. Brodsky received his Bachelor of Science in Economics from Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

“Julian’s experience and knowledge of the ’40 Act is unprecedented and cannot easily be replicated,” said Steve Plump, CEO of RBB. “While we will certainly miss Julian’s wisdom on a day-to-day basis, we appreciate that he will continue to be a resource for RBB as we grow in the years to come.”
