Andreas Halvorsen
Viking Global's Andreas Halvorsen has led the Tiger Cub for a quarter of a century.
  • Viking Global decided to hire more analysts four years ago to keep its talent pipeline strong.
  • The Tiger Cub told investors this approach has "borne fruit" as half of its PM ranks have been promoted from within.
  • The manager is known for constantly replenishing top talent as many leave to launch their own funds.

Viking Global — the $48 billion Tiger Cub launched in 1999 — has had to replace talented people many times throughout its 25 years of existence.
