Tuesday, August 3, 2004 Pioneer to Pick up 22 Funds from Safeco Sale Berkshire Hathaway and White Mountains Insurance Group, as freshly minted owners of Safeco Life & Investments, have decided to exit the mutual fund business, Reuters reported on Tuesday. Pioneer Investments will take over the former 22 Safeco funds, worth $3.6 billion in assets. The reorganization is contingent on a vote by Pioneer's directors and shareholders.
