SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--F2 Strategy, a wealthtech management consulting company serving complex wealth advisory firms, today announced the launch of its Executives-in-Residence (EIR) program, comprised of a legendary team of industry experts and former wealthtech executives that will further innovation for the industry at large. These professionals have gained a great amount of experience in their careers and join F2 as they transition toward a new venture or as they are looking toward their next chapter upon retirement.
The first cohort consists of:
- Koley Corte, Senior Strategy and Marketing Executive Leader, focused on driving strategic revenue and profit growth by leveraging digital and data; formerly Senior Vice President and Global Head of Business Transformation at AllianceBernstein;
- Bharat Kumta, Senior IT and Product Leader with a breadth of expertise across business domains and technologies for the world’s leading financial institutions; most recently Business (CIO) Partner of Private Wealth Management at First Republic Bank;

The EIR program offers C-level executives a unique opportunity to network and drive change outside of the traditional corporate full-time role structure. While in the program, EIR professionals can engage in cutting-edge client work, research, or mentorship, depending on their current career goals and passions.
“Experience is a key factor in driving technology transformation, so we developed our EIR program to attract the best and brightest minds to benefit both our clients and the wealthtech ecosystem as a whole including private equity firms, other consulting firms, companies looking to engage in mergers and acquisitions or performing an executive search,” said Doug Fritz, F2 Strategy Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder. “Koley, Bharat, Dave and Mike will add their collective experience to our team and we are eager to engage with more brilliant thinkers as we expand the program.”
F2 Strategy’s EIR program can feature as many as a dozen members at any given time with a 12-month timeframe for an EIR professional’s residency tenure.
