Chief Fixed Income Strategist

Lawrence Gillum is Chief Fixed Income Strategist for LPL Financial. Guiding the strategy for fixed income assets like debt-related investments (e.g., bonds, Treasuries), he is instrumental in helping shape LPL Research’s view on capital market conditions.

His perspective is funneled into all that LPL Research does—including maintaining model portfolios and regularly contributing and authoring LPL Research’s news and thought leadership publications. He is a member of the Strategic Asset and Allocation Committee (STAAC), which provides a united investment view across a comprehensive range of investing disciplines.

Lawrence worked at Raymond James as Director of Research, where he oversaw fixed income research within the firm’s models. Other experience includes time as an independent consultant for the CFA Institute, and as a Senior Investment Analyst.

Lawrence started in the industry in 1998 and became interested in investing during the dot-com era. After owning a number of stocks that proved to be worthless once the bubble burst, he realized he was better suited for fixed income analysis.
