Summary

It’s been a tumultuous year for Eaton Vance’s floating-rate team. On the heels of the January 2025 removal of Andrew Sveen, who was the head of the floating-rate platform and lead manager of their suite of floating-rate funds, comanager Jake Lemle suddenly left on June 12, 2025. The firm replaced Lemle with a new head of floating-rate loans, who will comanage Eaton Vance Floating-Rate alongside bank-loan veteran Ralph Hinckley. This upheaval results in a People Pillar rating downgrade to Average from Above Average.
