Seema Hingorani Biography

Seema R. Hingorani is an executive in the investment management industry with more than three decades of experience across major financial institutions. Hingorani earned a Bachelor of Arts in psychology and philosophy from Yale College and a Master of Business Administration in finance from The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. Her career includes roles as global director of fundamental research at Pyramis Global Advisors; partner, portfolio manager, and senior equity analyst at Andor Capital Management; partner and senior equity analyst at Pequot Capital Management; co-founder of Mirador Capital Management; and equity analyst at T. Rowe Price. She also served as chief investment officer for the New York City Retirement Systems, overseeing assets of $160 billion. During her tenure, the pension fund was named Hedge Fund Manager of the Year — Large Public Pension Plans by Institutional Investor.

Hingorani identified a lack of gender diversity within investment teams and addressed this challenge by founding Girls Who Invest, a nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing the number of women in portfolio management and executive leadership in the investment management sector. Girls Who Invest offers educational programs, paid internships, and a supportive community, resulting in more than 4,000 women participating in its programs, with 75 percent continuing in investment management.

Before joining Morgan Stanley, Hingorani was founder and chief investment officer of SevenStep Capital, an investment platform focused on seeding women portfolio managers. She is currently a managing director, senior client advisor, and member of the Operating Committee at Morgan Stanley Investment Management. Hingorani also serves as chair of the Senior Advisory Board of Morgan Stanley Infrastructure Partners, senior sponsor of Investment Management's Diversity Council, and member of Morgan Stanley's Diversity and Inclusion Senior Leaders Advisory Council. She is a director at Women's World Banking.

Hingorani has received recognition for her work in advancing gender diversity in finance, including the Chevalier of the National Order of the Légion d'Honneur, inclusion among the 100 most influential women in U.S. finance by Barron's, Bloomberg 50 "Ones To Watch," Wall Street Women Entrepreneur of the Year by Traders magazine, the Icon Award from Pension & Investments, the inaugural Torch Bearer Mentorship Award from the PEWIN Foundation, and recognition by Forbes on its "50 over 50: Investment" list.

Hingorani is involved with organizations focused on women's and girls' issues and is a frequent speaker on gender inclusion in the corporate sector. She is an active member of the Center for American Progress U.S. India Task Force, The Economic Club of New York, and 100 Women in Finance.
