Jeffrey Gundlach’s DoubleLine mutual funds have enjoyed blistering growth in the roughly two-and-half years since their inception.

Now to keep up with that growth, his firm plans to hire more people in equity research and client service, as well as in administrative functions such as legal and compliance, accounting and operations.

“Our risk-adjusted performance and our strong customer service are the most critical parts of our business, and we want to continue to build resources to support these endeavors” Ron Redell, president of DoubleLine Funds Trust and executive vice president of DoubleLine Capital, told MFWire.

For example, Redell said that his company plans to hire five analysts to assist the newly-hired former TCW [profile] equity PMs Husam Nazer and Brendt Stallings as they build up the newly-launched affiliate DoubleLine Equity.

Redell declined to go into specifics about the other planned hires but said that client service searches will include wholesalers, among other positions.
