Peter Nadosy will serve as interim CIO of Harvard Management Co. until a replacement for Jack Meyer is "in place," James F. Rothenberg, chairman of Harvard Management's board, said in a press release. Mr. Nadosy is a member of the Harvard Management board and a former president of Morgan Stanley Asset Management.

Harvard Management retained New York-based executive search firm PrinceGoldsmith earlier this year to identify a replacement for Mr. Meyer. Harvard also announced today that its endowment grew 19.2% to $25.9 billion during the fiscal year ended June 30.
