Christopher H. Wiles

Christopher H. Wiles, CFA, is the Founder and Chief Investment Officer of Rockhaven Capital Management, LLC. Mr. Wiles has over 30 years of diversified experience as a Portfolio Manager and an executive in the investment management industry. This leadership experience and a strong desire to build an investment-management firm, not an asset-gathering firm, led to the founding of Rockhaven Capital Management, LLC, in 2009. For the previous 12 years, Mr. Wiles led an investment team he put together in 1997 after leaving Federated Investors. This team had several different corporate affiliations — National City Bank, Strong Capital Management and AmSouth Bank — but for 12 years the original Rockhaven team stayed together and successfully managed billions in assets, hundreds of separate accounts and several mutual funds. Mr. Wiles has received a Chartered Financial Analyst designation from the CFA Institute in 1987, an MBA from Cleveland State University in 1984, a B.S. in finance from Youngstown State University in 1982 and an Associate degree in finance from Penn State University in 1979.
