Brendan R. Kalb is a seasoned investment management lawyer with more than two decades of experience advising leading asset managers on regulatory, compliance, and operational matters. His practice spans private funds (hedge funds, private equity, funds-of-funds), registered funds, commodity pools and CTA/CPO matters, derivatives regulation, and SEC/CFTC regulatory and enforcement issues.

Brendan most recently served as Global General Counsel of ExodusPoint Capital Management, LP, a multi-manager, multi-strategy investment adviser platform managing in excess of $14 billion, where he provided legal counsel and strategic guidance across the firm's global multi-strategy platform, with a focus on regulatory compliance and risk mitigation. Brendan also spent fourteen years at AQR Capital Management, LLC, rising from Associate General Counsel and Vice President to General Counsel and Managing Director: he supervised all legal, regulatory, administrative, public relations, and human resources matters for this global, multi-strategy complex that grew during his tenure to more than $200 billion in assets under management.

Earlier in his career, Brendan practiced at two AmLaw 100 firms, gaining experience across major transactions, litigations, and regulatory matters in the financial services sector, and advising asset management clients on fund formation, regulatory, and compliance matters.

Brendan has a substantial record of industry leadership and engagement, including service on the Board of Directors of the National Futures Association, as well as its Finance Committee and CFTC Rule 4.5 Working Group. He has chaired the Managed Funds Association's CTA, CPO & Futures Committee and served on its Investment Adviser and Government Affairs Committees. Brendan is a Senior Fellow and frequent lecturer for the Regulatory Compliance Association. He frequently writes and presents on hedge fund, registered fund, and derivatives regulatory topics.
