ProShares, a premier provider of ETFs, today announced that Ben Fulton has been named to the role of Managing Director. As a member of senior management, Mr. Fulton will contribute to the firm’s strategy and growing its business. He will report to ProShares CEO Michael L. Sapir.

Mr. Fulton’s principal responsibilities will include overseeing the company’s tactical products business. These products include all ProShares’ and ProFunds’ geared (leveraged and inverse) and volatility ETFs and mutual funds, which represent over $28 billion in assets.

“I am delighted to have Ben join our senior leadership and for him to help drive our business into the future,” said Mr. Sapir. “Ben’s leadership capabilities and the depth and breadth of his experience in the ETF industry are exceptionally rare.”
