Hamilton Lane names Hartley Rogers co-CEO; Erik Hirsch becomes Executive Co-Chair
Hamilton Lane's board appointed Hartley Rogers as Co-Chief Executive Officer alongside Juan Delgado-Moreira, effective with the October 12, 2026 board action, and Erik Hirsch moved from Co-CEO to Executive Co-Chair while staying on the board. The filing also describes new compensation terms for Hirsch, including accelerated vesting on certain terminations and a new cash incentive award whose value the board has yet to set, which matters to shareholders because it could add future costs tied to his role.
