NEWTON, Mass.--(Business Wire)--
Capital Advisors Group (CAG), a leading institutional investment advisor,
announced today that it has hired Bill Crist to the position of Executive Vice
President, Business Development. Bill joins CAG with more than 18 years
experience in distribution, sales, and product development in institutional
money market funds and fixed income products. 

"I`m excited to join Capital Advisors Group and help contribute to the company`s
established success and continued growth," said Crist. "From my experience in
the institutional money market fund and fixed income industries, I`m keenly
aware of the need for more transparent short-term investment options, and
specifically, products like separate cash accounts that provide a more
customized research and liquidity management experience for institutional
corporate and municipal investors. I look forward to focusing my efforts on
addressing the needs of these underserved organizations while opening new
distribution channels and contributing to Capital Advisors Group`s development."


"We are thrilled to welcome Bill to the Capital Advisors Group team. He brings a
proven track record, an extensive background in strategic growth and first-hand
knowledge of the short-term cash investment needs of larger companies and public
organizations," noted Ben Campbell, CAG president and CEO. "We believe his depth
of experience in the institutional money market fund industry will be a great
asset to CAG as we continue to strengthen and expand our offerings to
institutions that may be unaware of the benefits of customized short-term cash
portfolios." 

Prior to joining Capital Advisors Group, Bill was a Managing Director for Janus
Capital Group, where he was responsible for the distribution, sales, and product
development of Janus` institutional money market funds. Previous to Janus, Bill
