"Contrarian" manager names technology, operations specialist to new roles. Asset manager Dreman Value Management named Boris Onefater as CFO and COO last month. Both positions are new to the Jersey City, N.J.-based firm.

"We are very excited to have Boris aboard," says David Dreman, Dreman's founder, chairman and CIO.

Covers bases

Before joining Dreman, Onefater ran Deloitte's hedge-fund practice. Before that he was a partner of the Capital Markets Group, where he managed investment-management consulting services.

Onefater's expertise runs to "providing operations, technology, risk-management, business transformation to domestic and global investment-management organizations, retail and institutional investment advisors, hedge funds and separately managed accounts," according to a Dreman press release.

Dreman bills itself as a "contrarian" value manager. It manages about $17 billion for corporations, foundations, endowments, governments, public agencies, Taft Hartley accounts, high-net-worth individuals and family offices. -FWR
